This Side

There is light. We neither see nor touch it.

In its empty clarities rests

What we touch and see.

I see with my fingertips

What my eyes touch:

                         shadows, the world.

With shadows I draw worlds,

I scatter worlds with shadows.

I hear the light beat on the other side.

                                        Octavio Paz (A Tree Within)

Este lado

Hay Luz. No la tocamos ni la vemos.

En sus vacías claridades

reposa lo que vemos y tocamos.

Yo veo con las yemas de mis dedos

Lo que palpan mis ojos:

                              sombras, mundo.

Con las sombras dibujo mundos,

Disipo mundos con las sombras.

Oigo latir la luz del otro lado.

                                        Octavio Paz (Arbol adentro)

Unity           

                Rigidness                       Multiplicity

                        Light                   

                                                Flexibility

                                        Appearance      

                Shadow          Chaos

        Illusion

Perception

                                                        Mundane

                                                Arrhythmic (irregular)

                Saturation

                                        Order

Pulsation                                       Ethereal

Importance of pitches in spite of the flexibility

First sound - last sounds

Chiasmo - Extremes of disappearance

In May 2001 he founded Camerata Exaudi in the UCA School of Music and was its Principal Conductor until July 2003. In September 2002 he founded Ensemble LonBA jointly with the composers Matias Giuliani from Argentina and William Attwood from the UK, with which he has conducted several first performances in Europe and in the Teatro Colon, the most important venue in Buenos Aires.

He received the Multiplikatoren Stipendium scholarship form the German Goethe Institut, which enabled him to study in Berlin with Kent Nagano, chief Conductor of the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin. He was awarded composition prizes from the Argentinian ministry of culture for his piece Senza memoria di morte. He also won the Centro de Estudiantes de la Facultad de artes y Ciencias Musicales (CEFACM) Prize in two categories: chamber music for his piece Fingiendo el presentir and choral music for his works Lejos and Ave Maria II.

Mr. Baldini made his professional debut at the age of 24. He has been a guest conductor of the Mar del Plata Symphony Orchestra, the Penn State Chamber Orchestra and the San Martin Youth Symphony Orchestra.

In October 2003 he founded the Penn State University Ensemble Chiasmo, for which well known composers Julio Viera and Sidney Corbett among others have especially written pieces to be premiered.

Mr. Baldini has successfully conducted several first performances in Argentina and made gis European debut in Berlin within the famous Contemporary Music Cycle Unerhorte Musik. His compositions have been performed by the most outstanding groups in Argentina and Europe : the National Polyphonic Choir of Argentina, the Pierrot Lunnaire Ensemble of Vienna and the Illegal Harmony ensemble of Scotland.
