Within the wide and eclectic body of work by ĒTHĘR ensemble, one project stands out as a cornerstone: "1 0 1", an album who features the full Suite 1 0 1, composed and written in five movements by José Ángel Babiano and recognized with an award from the Department of Culture, Education and Language Policy of the Basque Government. Was recorded and produced by Juanan Ros, and proudly released under the prestigious Orpheus Classical label.
A groundbreaking contribution to the evolution of Chamber Music, 1 0 1 is an open-form, genre-defying total artwork—a sonic revolution capable of resonating across festivals of all kinds: from classical and contemporary music, to jazz, electronic, experimental, rock and popular music events.
Multiple award-winning, 1 0 1 album is available on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and rest of platforms. 🎧 Thank you for listening, feeling and supporting this musical vision.
