A good choir would love this work of art. Perfect concert and festival material! A Spanish text about being far from a loved one, "Distancia" is an illustration of the emotions associated with a long-distance relationship. The climax in the middle of the piece with the soaring soprano solo over the chaotic blurring of time ("noches, mananas, tardes, dias") is book-ended by the quiet confusion of joy and pain that controls the thoughts of separated lovers.
