Brief Information:

The composition Walking to Heaven with the masters was written for an unusual string orchestral combination in 2001, using an extra violin section – but was revised in 2013 to ‘normal’ string sections and improved in the distribution of part-writing. The ‘masters’ refer to the amount of musical quotes from the greatest composers in history, although many are disguised. This is set in a moderate but propulsing rhythm and can be considered on the frontier between jazz and classical, making it a popular choice amongst both players and public.

It is dedicated to the memory of the French violinist Cristophe Migdula, a regular visitor to the Navarre Symphony Orchestra, working alongside the composer.
