About the work | About the work
This work was commissioned by the Cultural Corporation of the La Granja Cultural-Espacio Matta Commune of Santiago de Chile in July 2019; A commission in which the composer was asked for some extra-musical “inspiration” from the mural The First Goal of the Chilean People by Roberto Matta (1911-2002). In 1971 Matta made this large mural that remained hidden since Pinochet's coup in 1973, being rediscovered and restored more than 30 years later. The motivation to do this work was assured from the beginning, Matta is one of Leo Brouwer's favorite visual artists.
