New Album
"Exhaling Space"
(Navona Records)
Interview with Alejandro Rutty about "Exhaling Space"
Cristina Baccín, "Corazon Tanguero". KUNM, Albuquerque,
“Rutty is a very original voice...”
The Classical Voice of North Carolina
"Alejandro Rutty's "The Conscious Sleepwalker Loops," a MATA commission, [is] a riotous collage of Argentine tango, some over-the-top Hollywoodesque flamenco, and various other Latin tropes. Rutty layers all this into an orchestrated remix, and the result is a blaring, multi-channel, gleefully vernacular carnival. It made a terrific curtain-raiser."
Boston Globe
"Alejandro Rutty’s amusing “Conscious Sleepwalker Loops” offered an immediate test of the ensemble’s mettle by pulling it briskly through a catalog of 19th- and 20th-century styles, slung together in much the same way a rock musician might make a mashup."
New York Times
"This release...sizzles with the energy and passion of Latin and world music influence....Not to be missed is Martian Milonga ... A Mars Colony (2145)... grounded in solid craftsmanship and given new futuristic life that even a Martian would love"
Holly Harris, Winnipeg Free Press
"Engaging sound world that invites the listener in on often fascinating aural journeys"
Steven kennedy, Cinemusical
