Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Manfred Eicher, fundador del sello alemán ECM, decidió definir la música que editaba en su sello diciendo que era el sonido más bello después del silencio. Hans Zimmer también dijo algo parecido no hace mucho y en una entrevista Steve Roach confesó que acudÃa al desierto cada dÃa para escuchar el silencio, que allà era capaz de sentir los latidos de su corazón. Asà que no es extraño que el silencio forme una parte importante de determinados tipos de música o que resulte fuente de inspiración para componer esos determinados tipos de música. Hoy, en las próximas dos horas, escucharemos ese tipo especial de música que podrÃamos denominar música silenciosa. Matt Emery, Andrew Land, Yu Su, Alex Roe, darungara, The Secession, Tom Adams, Deuter, Michael Neil, Pedro Hurtado, Liam Boyle, Christine Ott, Marc Enfroy, Tony Anderson, Helsinki Project.
