Neon and Glitched.
For Saxophone and Electronics
Commissioned by Sara Zazo (2024)
Ircam, Studio 5, 14 September 2025
Colors, distortion and psychedelic experiences are the themes that inspire this work composed by Luis Torres. In the same way as his work Peyotl for accordion and electronics, this work is related to the hallucinogenic effects that the brain is capable of perceiving under the influence of psychotropic substances, creating sound atmospheres that envelop the audience in a series of extreme sensations.
Inspired by the work of the poet Wislawa Szymborska, this work, composed for an acoustic instrument and electronics, also represents loneliness and the space between the individual and solitude, the incomprehension of the artist or writer, who explores through his creation what others explore through their senses.
