From her home in London, Mexican-British composer Hilda Paredes talks to us about her background as a flutist and composer, influences from her Mayan roots, writing for specific or imaginary players, and how she copes with Covid19 days. Throughout the session, we discuss her Opera "El Palacio Imaginado", watch an excerpt from "Harriet", and listen to instrumental works "Ah Paaxo'ob" and "Siphonophore".

I hope you enjoy the talk as much as we did!  #composer #covid19 #harriet_opera #isabelallende #composer #boxing_on_ice
