A performative concert by CoroDelantal MACA, directed by Sonia Megías, will take an emotional journey through the voice, with soloists Irene Gil and Janet Jackson Tyler Lummer. This journey will depart from 'rare scores', experimental notations created specifically for the choir; passing through the broken loves that popular music brings us, and ending with an anti-capitalist, anti-racist, and anti-slavery denunciation by the hand of invited soloists who will make their songs resonate in the works of Kara Walker's exhibition.

End of the Graphic Music Workshop at the museum. An experimental concert based on scores, algorithms, improvisation and collective creation. Come participate as an audience member!

Mariana Gutiérrez, Natalia Fernández and Héctor Bardisa will perform graphic scores that have been created during these months over six sessions.

Discover the intersection between music and visual art in the Graphic Music Workshop, a creative laboratory where sound and image communicate with each other. This space is an invitation to play, experimentation, and collective imagination, in which participants of all ages and levels discover unique forms of expression through graphic scores.

Each session is unique and different. Throughout the workshop you will explore how to draw music and how to sonically interpret visual works, with inspiring examples from artists and composers who have worked on this artistic frontier. Through participatory dynamics, you will learn to create your own graphic scores and make them sound in surprising ways.

It is recommended to bring your own drawing materials. No prior training is necessary.

SoniArt presents a concert of newly created music. Guest composer Natalia G. Iglesias.

SoniArt 2025 is presented with the intention of continuing to consolidate a cycle of concerts among audiences who appreciate and are attracted to contemporary art. There are various challenges that contemporary art must face, one of the most recurring being the lack of understanding with which the public justifies the disinterest with which they observe current artistic manifestations. Undoubtedly, when a composer speaks about their work, showing their creative processes as well as their motivations and expressive needs, greater connection with the audience is achieved and the path toward acceptance of the work is cleared. Our personal reality pushes us toward different sensations according to our vital moment. But understanding the artist's thinking and their creative processes allow us to obtain a real approach to the creation of works, to the aesthetic fact, and to the artist's motivations.

SR. LOBEZNO is one of the key names in the Spanish club scene. A specialist in black music, his career has been forged over more than two decades, becoming a reference figure in clubs, not only as a DJ but also as a promoter, club director, programmer, and avid vinyl collector. Founder of the Afrodisia Club in Granada, an internationally renowned venue for black sounds with over 20 years of history, he was also co-creator of the record label ENNEGRO DISCOS.

His sessions, always on vinyl, are a perfect combination of rhythm, quality, and innovation while keeping an eye on the references of the past.

The Grand CoroDelantal, composed of singers from CoroDelantal MACA and CoroDelantal Madrid, premieres the work Without Body, created specifically for the occasion by the renowned composer and architect Anna Bofill Levi, academic of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi. The poem that inspired the work is written by Cinta Montagut, Catalan poet. Both artists have been working on this project for months alongside Sonia Megías, director of CoroDelantal, and have already held several rehearsals and in-person meetings with both branches of the choir in Alicante and Madrid respectively.

Without Body is a work commissioned by MACA and will be rehearsed by CoroDelantal MACA together with Anna and Cinta starting Tuesday, March 25 in the various spaces of the museum, to hold the world premiere on Sunday the 30th at 12:30. The work blends the sound of the smooth stones from Cadaqués (where the creators of the piece reside) and Altea, with the voices of the choir singers and the resonances of the different spaces of the museum. It is a work in movement, in which the behavior of the group evokes the choirs of Ancient Greece.

A beautiful and very original creation, a fusion between music and architecture that will not leave anyone indifferent.

We look forward to seeing you!

World premiere

'Deep Listening'. Corodelantal (with Spanish subtitles)

Pauline Oliveros was the most relevant composer of the United States. She created a method of making music that she called 'Deep Listening'. In May 2024, film director Daniel Weintraub launches this wonderful two-hour documentary, which he presents in Kingston (New York) last May.

Sonia Megías, friend and student of Pauline Oliveros, brings the deep listening practices of the American artist to Alicante through the CoroDelantal MACA, and on this occasion, after conversations with Weintraub, presents the documentary about Pauline in two one-hour sessions, accompanied by performances that the American artist herself sent to CoroDelantal in 2015 and that will be carried out together with a debate about listening, moderated by Megías.
