CANCIÓN by Carlos Rafael Rivera
was composed as a gift of thanks to Tom Shadyac. Shadyac. There are no borrowed folk melodies or rhythmic patterns. It is one of those pieces that seem to have already been written, written, and I fortunately happened to stumble upon. -Carlos Rafael Rivera
ABOUT THE COMPOSER
Los Angeles based musician Carlos Rafael Rivera was born in Washington, DC, and grew up in Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, and Miami. Being of Cuban/Guatemalan descent, his work as composer is an amalgamation of his passion for cross-cultural folklore and music. From the Tibetan Buddhist chants of his choral work "Motet for Twelve Singers," through his orchestral setting of the Mayan myths of the “Popol-Vuh,” Carlos' compositions have been recorded by Chanticleer for Warner Classics, the LA Guitar Quartet for Sony Classical, and Denis Azabagic for Naxos. Performers of his work include some of the world's brightest young stars, such as percussionist Colin Currie, the Cavatina Duo, the Aquarelle Guitar Quartet, and guitarist Masahiro Masuda. His music is published published by Mel Bay and and Doberman-Yppan, and awarded awarded by the American Composers Composers Orchestra, BMI, the Guitar Foundation of America, and twice by ASCAP.
