Abstract

The aim of this work is to present reflections, and study and performance strategies onthepiece “[cello]” (2021) by Tomás Cabado. The methodology used, typical of artisticresearchaccording to Robin Nelson and Henk Borgdorff, proposes a theoretical and conceptualframework for thinking about the performance of this piece, and we have enrichedthesereflections with conversations with the composer himself. The dissertation presents waysofapproaching the piece that could be useful for other contemporary cello repertoires. Someofthe researcher/performer's reflections are also presented, based on theory, philosophyandpoetry, to consider how the study and interpretation of this work and similar repertoiresallowus to focus on time, the details, and silence, seeking new experiences and relationships aroundthese three concepts.
