Program note 

Is it possible to conceive of a “monolithic” form? It would be a complete block in itself, which has no need of any other part to complete a structure, a form. Is the artist's task suppressed at all by offering only a “raw” product, devoid of internal complexities? Does such a treatment of form eliminate the work's possibilities of communication? Does it limit them? 

These questions motivated the composition of this piece. El paraíso is a monolithic block, within which a unidirectional and imperturbable process takes place.
