🌧️✨ Torrential Raindance is almost here! Releasing August 1, this album is the culmination of a decade-long artistic journey—and Paris Move just called it “a deeply rewarding listening experience shaped by two artists in profound dialogue.” We couldn’t be more thrilled! 🎶 From vivid sonic landscapes to daring rhythmic storytelling, this music is more than notes—it’s transformation. April’s fearless flute meets Miguel’s poetic piano in a collaboration that redefines the flute-piano repertoire . The title track? A visceral downpour of emotion and sound . You’ll feel it. 💬 “Not just impressed, but moved.” — Thierry De Clemensat, Paris Move "indispensable...a torrential leap" "April Clayton and Miguel del Aguila redefine the flute-piano duo repertoire with vivid lyricism and daring spirit"   "There is a romantic beauty at the heart of this project, one that quickly gives way to a deeper poetic impulse. The works here are not mere exercises in technical...

🌌 Here a new clip of SALVA ME — a work close to my heart, written for a cappella choir and composed in memory of my brother, Nelson del Águila (1964–2012). Performed here by the brilliant Radiance Ensemble under the direction of Markdavin Obenza, the piece unfolds in quiet reverence, echoing a plea for mercy, grace, and redemption. Watch here: https://youtu.be/-PW146fV3Mw 🕊️ “Deliver me, fount of mercy...” This movement forms part of an a cappella Mass I began in 2015, each section conceived to stand alone or together in liturgical reflection. SALVA ME traces an introspective arc, its stillness shaped by quartal harmonies and shimmering seventh chords. #SalvaMe #MigueldelAguila #RadianceEnsemble #ContemporaryChoral #ACappellaMass #SeattleMusic #ChoralMeditation #ChœurACappella #CoroACappella #ChórACappella #SacredMusicReimagined
