Extractions: Roberto Sierra's Tropicalia rose like a brilliant vapor from the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra....Sierra's harmonies and scoring are so resonant that it is impossible to stand outside the piece and merely listen. The music envelops, and not in some dreamy, easy-listening wash. Tropicalia is sensuous, mysterious, ecstatic, potent.

Extractions: Lugar de nacimiento: Vega Baja, Puerto Rico El pianista, compositor, arreglista y director Roberto Sierra heredó su afición musical de su abuela. Desde niño demostró su amor por la música cuando se apropió del piano de su hermana y aprendió por sí mismo las bases del piano y solfeo con la enciclopedia "Lo sé todo". Poco después comenzó sus estudios formalmente en el Conservatorio de Música, bajo la tutela de los profesores Cecilia Talavera, Luis Antonio Ramírez y Alfredo Romero, y después en la Universidad de Puerto Rico. Luego de graduarse, este talentoso músico nacido en Vega Baja se trasladó a Europa a expandir sus conocimientos en el arte. Su "Salsa para los vientos" fue un trabajo premiado en el Budapest Spring Festival en 1983 y su "Suite" ganó el primer lugar en el Alienor Harsichord Competition. En 1987, el Almeida Festival en Londres dedicó todo un concierto a sus trabajos de música de cámara. El evento fue grabado en vivo y difundido por la cadena televisiva BBC. Precisamente ese mismo año, Sierra aumentó su notoridad cuando su primera composición orquestral, "Júbilo", fue interpretada en el Carnegie Hall por la Orquesta Sinfónica de Milwaukee .

Extractions: Roberto Sierra What the critics say... Biography... Catalogue of works... Return to SubitoToday Subito Music Home Roberto Sierra and Leonard Slatkin, Royal Albert Hall, at the premiere of Fandangos during The Proms Walking the line between a heritage that is not central to the western tradition and the very core of that tradition as carried on by the American symphony orchestras is not a problem that worries Roberto. For him he builds like a symphonist, but the bricks he builds with, a turn of phrase, a fleeting rhythm, these are the spontaneous deep felt blood of the Latin tradition, never far below the surface, always filling out the great formal heritage of the west. Roberto is a composer who loves life, no hair shirt in a freezing attic for him. Music is one of the good things of life to be enjoyed, lived and loved. His music is a tonic in this often sorry world. His love affair with life extends beyond painting, literature and poetry to one other splendid area of expertise. He is an enologist of passion and delight. His pleasure in the complex sensual world of great wines is almost as profound as his delight in wonderful music, but not quite. Trio Tropical Made a splendid impression. A master of rhythm and atmosphere, gathering Caribbean, Latin American and jazz elements into a classical idiom . . .these diverse sounds intersect within a keenly demarcated frame; the result is a sensuous, ever-shifting musical picture poised between impressionism and rhythmic modernism.
