Montagne, mountain in english, is a project born out of the need to delve deeper into personal musical language, specifically in the context of free improvisation. The project is based on the encounter between the artist and different acoustic contexts. The artist in nature, with his instrument, travels in search of spaces where he can improvise. Each sound produced by the artist is endowed with a uniqueness and richness that is specific to each environment, only possible in a context far removed from the noise pollution of the city. The sounds of nature, animals, and their echoes interact with the sounds of the instrument and vice versa.

BIO

Andrés Navarro García is a percussionist and sound artist. His work explores percussion in relation to space, objects, and the present moment. His approach begins with sound rather than music, with physical vibration rather than theoretical concepts.

In recent years, he has developed an artistic practice where the performative, the banal, and the sonic coexist. Improvisation and composition appear in his work not as separate methods, but as different ways of listening.

His career includes collaborations with dance and music companies, visual artists, performers, and musicians, as well as the creation of pieces for theatre, dance, and ensembles.

In collaboration with Acción Cultural Española.
