Simultaneously, the international diffusion of the activity of Taller Sonoro has been one of its prime objectives, contributing to the knowledge of current Spanish repertoires in European scope- Cycle OPUS 5.1 (Bordeaux, 2005), Cycle «Spirals» ( Paris, 2005), Hochschule für Musik (Frankfurt am Main, 2005), Instituto Cervantes Berlin (2006, 2007) and Bremen (2007), Colegio de España and Instituto Cervantes de Paris (2007), Theatre Quartz (Brest, 2008) Academia de España in Rome (2010) and recently in the Vienna Musikverein (May 2011) and, singularly, it is a group of remarkable presence in Latin American latitudes, from Peru (Festival de Música Contemporanea in Lima, 20) to Mexico (Festival Múisca contemporanea in Morelia, 2010) and Argentina (2011).Ĭertainly, the collaboration with other musical groups and access to the recording market decisively enriches the contribution of Taller Sonoro to the national scene: with several projects in which the group has collaborated with the Ensemble Organum Marcel Peres and the Ensemble Gilles Binchois conducted by Dominique Vellard, the phonographic presence of our group covers monographs devoted to composers such as José María Sánchez-Verdú, Juan Cruz and Cesar Camarero, within the first edited series by Anemos in 2009 – as well as two live recordings devoted to the work of David del Puerto (Sendesaal, Radio Bremen, ) and finalists composers Premio Fundación de Autor SGAE (Auditorio 400, National Museum Art Centre Reina Sofia, ). The deployment of these two lines of action has been unstoppable in the last decade as it has been proven in a regular way in the Ciclo de Música Contemporanea in Seville and Granada from 2002, in seasons of CDMC at the Museo Reina Sofia Art Center, 2006, 2007 (and soon 2012), in the Ciclo de Música Comtemporanea in Córdoba (2005), the Ciclo de Música Contemporanea Orquesta Sinfónica of Malaga (2007), the Festival de Música Contemporanea of Alicante (2008), the Quincena Musical of San Sebastian (2006) and festivals KLEM (Bilbao, 2009) and ENSEMS (Valencia, 2010) … landmarks of an Iberian Peninsula which also lists the names of Almería (Ciclo de Música de Cámara of Unicaja), Santander (Universidad Internacional Menendez Pelayo), Murcia (II Festival de Música Contemporanea in Molina de Segura) and, again, Madrid (Auditorio Nacional de Musica).
