A joyful product of mutual understanding between these two outstanding composers, described by Manuel Zurria in the booklet with the following words: "Philip Corner gave me the key to enter a secret and wonderful room, full of fabulous things and made me discover a part of me I did not know." Much more than a journey through sound, this work is a reflection on our modern world and the role played by music and soundscapes. It's a journey through traditional instruments and modern techniques of sound production, from the usual electronic ones to the ultimate icon of contemporary society: the iPhone. Here, music has been reduced to a mere suggestion, a medium used in order to discover the potential of the player, plucking at his heartstrings. The wide range of sounds shares a common feature of the composers' will: to experience music as a whole, without limits and boundaries related to the specific instrumental destination. Two worlds melt here and the result of this blessed encounter is well expressed by the title.
