Music for the ballet with the same name, comission of group Mediterrània Dansa from Figueres in commemoration of Dali's Year 2004, around the works of the catalan painter Salvador Dalí.
The ballet makes a journey through some of the most emblematic works of the catalan paintor, such as "Eggs and bread", "Galatea from the spheres", "The persistance of memory" or the room in Dalí's Museum dedicated to Mae West among many others. Under the dome that presides Dalí's Museum it opens a world of colors, sensations and dreams which shows his work and life. Toghether we will see a small fragment of this world, at the same time we'll discover the moment in which Salvador decides live as Dalí.
The argument is based on an hipothetic dream lived by a young Dalí, where consecrated Dalí appears to him in dreams, showing him future works he is destined to create. And so the works, which will make Dalí, are danced in front of a surprised Salvador. The show ends with a kind of final surrealistic collage, in which Salvador dismisses Dalí to prepare oneself to wake up and continue enjoying his youth, knowing more clearly what he ends up being: Salvador Dalí, the painter.
Although the original conception of the work is a ballet, it can be perfectly interpreted as a concert.
The music was recorded in the recording studio 44.1 of Aiguaviva, for use it during the tour of the show, but the first performance of the ballet was done live.

Later I made a suite about the same abllet for tenor, drums, electric bass and piano.
This suite was created specifically for the show Collaborators concert of 2013 in the auditorium of Banyoles, to celebrate my 25 years of professional dedication to music. Jordi Molina (tenor) and Cidon Trindade (drums) who premiered the suite of The dreams dome in this concert, also were part of the musicians that recorder the original work in 2005.
In this case was added the bass of Llenç Pujol.
