Collaborations between artists is what inspires me the most.
Henrique Eisenmann stands as one of the most creative contemporary composers currently in the US. In this new groundbreaking record, Eisenmann teamed up with poet Hadassa Tal with the goal to create a new musical language for the piano able to translate words and movement into sounds. Initially Henrique worked over the recorded voice of Hadassa Tal reciting her poems in Hebrew, and then gave form, harmony and rhythm to the melodies. "As my homage to Pina Bausch, I decided to compose using the form of a Baroque suite, which is nothing more than a collection of different dances, but with a contemporary aesthetic approach" (H. Eisenmann).
