“...A work composed with heartfelt emotion during this pandemic that is ravaging humanity... A musical tribute to those who gave their lives to care for the health of patients. The composer chose the tonal writing, in minor mode, and with an elegiac tone, as the most appropriate to carry out the tribute. The piece is in sonata form, with a first theme that expresses the pain of human losses, a second theme that evokes the heroism of those who fell in the exercise of their profession, and at the end it represents a heroic fight, no longer to care for others but to save one's own life, until the last notes bring death. Musically, it can be found references to funeral marches by Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Chopin and Alkan, as well as allusions to funeral drums...” Critical review by Guillermo Zalcman on Radio Nacional Clásica (Argentina). August 22, 2020.
