This festival celebrates sound, music and audiovisual experimentation,\u00a0 research, promotion and advocacy, taking an innovative perspective on the sound arts, related to the use of electronic and digital technologies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Escuchar [Sonidos visuales] [Listening: Visual Sounds] is a landmark in its field. The festival has run continuously for the past 27 years and is renowned for providing a space for production and experimentation that explores the multiple dimensions of sound. Every year, the festival opens the doors for sound to be expressed in all its splendour, and to be intertwined with the visual and performing arts, creating truly unique events.<\/span><\/p>

In 2025, the festival will echo the theme of the Museo Moderno\u2019s annual programme, <\/span>Arte Es Teatro<\/span><\/i> [<\/span>Art Is Theatre<\/span><\/i>], delving into the intersections between music, the theatrical arts and performances. This edition of the festival offers performance-based concerts, a lecture dedicated to the relationships between music, sound and theatre; a hybrid concert; and a sound and light show. Each activity highlights the central role that sound plays in the contemporary scene: capable of transforming spaces, corporealities and modes of perception.<\/span><\/p>

<\/span>8:00 p.m.<\/strong> Performance-based concert. <\/span>Objetos y palabras <\/span><\/i>[<\/span>Objects and Words<\/span><\/i>]
<\/span>Carmen Baliero. With the participation of Francisco Benvenuti
<\/span>A play featuring everyday objects and two actors or actresses, it presents a performative discourse constructed from words as sound objects and uses everyday objects as musical instruments. The words, as an expressive element, are taken from pre-existing texts whose original function had nothing to do with poetic discourse.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>9:00 p.m.<\/strong> Performance-based concert. <\/span>Respira <\/span><\/i>[<\/span>Breathe<\/span><\/i>]\u00a0
<\/span>Javier Bustos
<\/span>Respira<\/span><\/i> [<\/span>Breathe<\/span><\/i>] is a sound performance that features an experimental electronic bandoneon built and designed by Javier Bustos, who reinterprets this traditional instrument in a cyborg-like style. The bellows of the bandoneon transform and manipulate specially-programmed samplers and synthesizers, which allow the flow of air to modify the sound and lights of the stage to reflect the movements of the body and the \u2018breathing\u2019 of the instrument. The constant flow of air through the bandoneon gives the sound experience an organic feel and invites the audience to respond with their own bodies. In addition to <\/span>Respira<\/span><\/i>, Bustos will present an ad hoc piece he created for this edition of Escuchar [Sonidos visuales].<\/span>

11 a.m.<\/strong> Escuchar MINI [MINI Listening]. A concert with students from Schools No. 2, 13 and 23 of School District 5 and School of Music No. 5<\/span><\/p>

Escuchar MINI is a segment of the festival dedicated to creating sound experiences for children. It includes the staging of a concert that brings together audiovisual productions created by primary school pupils from different state schools in the La Boca, San Telmo, Barracas and Pompeya neighbourhoods. It will also include an interpretation of works by twentieth century composers such as Steve Reich and Frederic Rzewski. It is part of an innovative educational project that focuses on expanding listening through experimenting with the materiality of sounds and visuals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The live performances are coordinated with audiovisual productions that have also been created by the students as part of the Proyecto Distrital de Artes Electr\u00f3nicas [District Electronic Arts Project] (2025), in which knowledge and productions from the artistic, technological and digital fields converge. The presentation offers a journey through sound and visual interpretations that express interdisciplinary aesthetic relationships. <\/span>

8:00 p.m.<\/strong> Hybrid concert
<\/span>Cecilia Quinteros will present a piece she created especially for this edition of Escuchar [Sonidos visuales], in which she weaves together elements of her previous works, <\/span>Narel<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Qadira<\/span><\/i>, with new material.<\/span><\/p>

9:00 p.m.<\/strong> Sound and light show
<\/span>Dr. Zoppa (AR\/MX)<\/span>
<\/span>Dr. Zoppa is the alter ego of Francisco Colasanto. This will mark the premiere of this performance that offers an immersive audiovisual experience that combines experimental electronic music with visual elements and laser projections. The stage design consists of a semi-transparent cube that envelops the performer, serving as a support and container for the performance. From within the structure, Dr. Zoppa unfolds a live performance permeated by Intelligent Dance Music (IDM), algorithmic processes and highly precise rhythmic textures, while the faces of the cube will be transformed into canvases filled with incessantly mutating images.<\/span>
