PREVIOUS PROJECTS > Walking Around - Pablo Neruda

Josep-Maria Balanyà, piano

Musical performance by the pianist and composer Josep-Maria Balanyà, inspired by the poem Walking Around from the book Residencia en la Tierra vol. 2, written by Pablo Neruda in 1933.

This project was commissioned by Kosmopolis’04 Festival and consists of the projection of a video in which the texts of the poem appear while Balanyà simultaneously plays his composition on the piano. Balanyà continues his exploration of the sound possibilities of the piano by "writing in situ" the thoughts and feelings provoked by reading Neruda's work.

The project was premiered in the Hall Proteu, CCCB, Barcelona, on September 16, 2004
