| Calixto Álvarez
(1938-)
Calixto Álvarez studied at the Amadeo Roldán Conservatory in Havana,
taking composition classes with Leo Brouwer, 17
and then in
Poland with Dobrowolski, Kotonski, and others. His compositional style was
strongly influenced by Federico Smith and Leo Brouwer, from whom he took
classes. Álvarez wrote works for orchestra, piano, chamber groups, and vocal
groups, as well as incidental music for the theater. Noteworthy among his
ensemble music incorporating the piano is
Canto cardinal
for contralto, percussion, and piano. He also wrote
Canon I and
Canon II,
for piano and tape, in 1978 and 1979 respectively.
18
Álvarez experimented
with many twentieth-century techniques, particularly after 1970, including
minimalism and neo-Romanticism.19
