Arquitecturas del Silencio, meaning ‘The architecture of Silence’ is a piece composed by José Maria Sanchez Verdú. Not only the musical material but also the theme of this work draw my immediate attention. To me, the beauty of art, music, often lies in those elements you cannot entirely grasp, see or verbalize.
With this motive in mind, I created this solo program, which I also recorded on CD in 2018.
“..despite her early age, Erica Roozendaal succeeds in sounding like a very mature and seasoned musician who, moreover, is unbridled curious in life. We must cherish such people, because they are equipped with antennas, capturing things that you and I do not know. That she succeeds in making this music accessable for you and me to listen to is, I think, a great gift and I certainly cannot end without having mentioned the very nice packaging of this album. Heavenly!” (Dani Heyvaert, Rootstime.be)
