THE SILENCE OF THEIR NAMES

(El silencio de sus nombres)

World Premiere: March 2021, Auditorio Nacional de Música, Madrid, Orquesta Sinfónica y Coro RTVE

On March 2021 Federico Jusid conducted the Spanish National Radio and Television Orchestra and Choir at the Spanish National Auditorium for the Special Homage Concert to the Terrorism Victims. Jusid’s commisioned work The Silence of Their Names was premiered on this concert.

World premiere of Federico Jusid’s cantata ‘El silencio de sus nombres’, with the composer himself conducting the RTVE Symphony Orchestra and Choir. It is a composition made altruistically commissioned by the Victims of Terrorism Foundation on the 20th anniversary of his birth. Dedicated to the relatives who have lost their loved ones and the survivors, the composer wants to transmit with this piece a message of pain and solidarity, but also a vital desire to improve, to “search for light”.
