“Fenix” for symphony orchestra

The symphonic poem “Fenix” is an emotional journey through the darkness towards the light. As an artist, I'm drawn to the experience of overcoming adversity, surviving the loss and with the power of inspiration and spirituality emerging from the ashes renewed, reborn and ever more compassionate. I feel that right now we need very much the sense of sympathetic compassion among people and music has the power and emotional intelligence to help us find a connection to our own hearts and to those around us. We are defined by our mortality yet it is the promise of soul everlasting that defines our humanity. Fenix (Spanish for Phoenix) is an ancient symbol of renewal that lands a powerful and poetic image to this catharsis: a majestic creature that spreads its wings and soars to new heights. I hope that my new symphonic poem “Fenix” will inspire the audience to look inwards and find the renewal in their hearts.
