A 90 pieces cycle for solo piano called Instantaneous Music, created specifically for the program directed by Martí Gironell “El pont de les formigues” of Catalunya Ràdio, during the seasons 2001-2004.

The particularity of this cycle of pieces for solo piano is that I proposed to compose them immediately, with the firsts musical ideas that inspire me the different themes the show producers proposed me, that changed each week. That's why all have a specific date of creation, as sometimes I composed many of them the same day.  

In the middle part of each piece there is space for improvisation.

Topic proposed for this piece:On April 4, 1968, the American leader Martin Luther King was assassinated, he said: "I had a dream that someday black people would be free in this country," and the question is whether you still have dreams, and if you have them put into practice.

Emission of the piece: April 5, 2003
