Foxes Hotel for orchestra (2019), ca.10'

The Foxes Hotel [Academy] is a model hotel that serves as a training centre for people with learning difficulties in England. Through a variety of practical training programmes offered by the hotel academy, it aims to help these individuals become independent, integrate into society and, by extension, secure employment.

The work Foxes Hotel, taking this hotel academy as its extra-musical reference and using the orchestral soundscape as a medium, portrays aspects of these individuals’ daily lives, which encompass concepts such as difficulty, barriers, time and space, as well as the accompanying emotions of sadness, anger and joy.
