The concept Abstract Folklore is based on principles such as the primary pulsation (understood as “Tempus Primus”), the resonance and the obsessive use of polyrhythmic and polyphonic interlocking musical events and segments of different density and duration.
In the Abstract Folklore there is an inclination towards big format works, with numerous groups of instruments (large ensemble and orchestra), characterized by abundant utilization of percussion instruments. It may also be distinguished two main directions: vocal music (opera and sacred music), and instrumental with particular predilection for the Concertante forms.
Among his most representative works are Magnificat Guadalupano, Missa Cunctipotens Genitor Deus, 6 Ricercares de Cámara, a large production for guitar including two guitar concertos and one for four guitars, a piccolo and double-bass concertos, and two triple concertos. Highlight in particular Symphony N. 1 and the creation of a new genre called Hemoficction Opera. “Hemofiction”, is a literary aesthetic invented by his father, the Mexican play writer and novelist Juan Trigos S.
