Jesús Rueda's "Sinfonia No. 3, Luz" - Imaginary Journey" is a captivating orchestral work that seamlessly blends classical symphonic traditions with contemporary compositions. Released on July 27, 2010, under the Naxos label, this album presents the definitive version of Rueda's Third Symphony, a piece that is both profound and evocative. The symphony is divided into five movements, each inspired by the elements: fire, water, earth, air, and a final movement titled "Hacia la luz" (Towards the Light). Each movement is a masterful exploration of the respective element, showcasing Rueda's ability to translate abstract concepts into rich, orchestral soundscapes.
The album also includes "Viaje imaginario" (Imaginary Journey), a tribute to Francisco Guerrero, adding a layer of depth and personal significance to the collection. Conducted by Maximiano Valdés and performed by the Asturias Symphony Orchestra, the album benefits from the precise and passionate interpretation of these skilled musicians.
With a total duration of 51 minutes, this album is a testament to Rueda's compositional prowess and the orchestra's technical excellence. It's a must-listen for fans of symphonic music and those looking to explore the works of one of the most compelling contemporary composers.
