Juan Trigos

Juan Trigos (born February 26, 1965) is a Mexican composer and conductor who created the "Hemofiction Opera" genre.

Biography

Juan Trigos was born in Mexico City, and studied music at the National Conservatory and the Instituto de Liturgia Música y Arte ''Cardinal Miranda''. He continued his studies in Italy at the Pontificio Istituto di Musica Sacra of Rome, the Conservatorio di Musica ''G. Verdi'' (Milan), the Civica Scuola di Musica (Milan), and the Academy ''Lorenzo Perosi'' (Biella). Juan was taught by Franco Donatoni, Niccolò Castiglioni, Giovanni Bucci and Jesús Villaseñor (composition), Gianpiero Taverna, Franco Gallini, Domenico Bartolucci, and Xavier González Tescucano (conducting), Enzo Stanzani, Margot Fleites, and Miguel Agustín López (piano).

Activity as a composer

Juan Trigos is an active composer, creator of the concept ''Abstract Folklore'', a process in which various literary and vernacular musical traditions are abstracted and assimilated into modern compositional rhetoric. Some of the principles behind this concept are elements such as "primary pulsation", the resonance and the interrelation of polyrhythmic/polyphonic musical events and segments of different density and duration. The process is founded on the abstraction and manipulation of original materials or taken from diverse sources. The material is always susceptible to innovation, not only in a pure speculation sense, but also as the assimilation of the musical experience.

As a composer, whose work has been performed worldwide, two fundamental aspects distinguish his musical production: vocal music (opera and sacred) and symphonic music, both with a remarkable predilection for large-scale forms. His more relevant compositions include five symphonies, four operas, three Cantatas Concertantes, Concertos for several instruments and his production for guitar.

Winner of the 2020 Fromm Commission of the Fromm Music Foundation at Harvard University.
