Arturo MĂĄrquez LejanĂa Interior (Inner Distance) for Cello and Piano
It can safely be said that with one work, Arturo Márquez put his stamp on concert music for all time. His Danzón No.2, inspired by the Cuban dance form that migrated to Veracruz on Mexico’s gulf coast, is one of the most popular orchestral works in the world today, recorded by Gustavo Dudamel on Deutsche Grammophon and by many others, and heard with great frequency in concert halls. Márquez was born in Alamos, Sonora, Mexico in 1950. He began his musical training in La Puente, California in 1966, later studying piano and music theory at the Conservatory of Music of Mexico, and composition at the Taller de Composición of the Institute of Fine Arts of Mexico with such composers as Joaquín Gutiérrez Heras, Hector Quintanar, and Federico Ibarra. He also studied in Paris privately with Jacques Castérède, and at the California Institute of the Arts with Morton Subotnick, Stephen Mosko, Mel Powell, and James Newton. In February 2006, Arturo Márquez received the "Medalla de Oro de Bellas Artes" (Gold Medal of Fine Arts), the highest honor given to artists by Mexico’s Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes. Márquez has received commissions from the Los Angeles Philharmonic, The San Antonio Symphony, the Organization of American States, the Universidad Metropolitana de Mexico, the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Mexico, Festival Cervantino, Festival del Caribe, Festival de la Ciudad de Mexico, and the Rockefeller Foundation. He has received grants from the Institute of Fine Arts of Mexico, the French Government, and the Fulbright Foundation. In 1994 he received the composition scholarship of Mexico’s Consejo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes.
