His works have been published in Mexico and in Germany.
The Sonata for Flute, Viola, and Piano that we are listening to, it has been published by Ediciones Musicales Arte Gráfico y Sonoro, in 2007 and recorded under the URTEX Digital Classics label. It lasts approximately 8 minutes and is presented as a single movement; It begins with an introduction of the piano to which the flute joins very discreetly, the viola begins with single D strings and the very subtly, this being a resource widely used during the work, the use of single strings. It reaches moments of climax but the work, in general, has a calm air, remembering impressionist music.
The recording we are listening to is interpreted by Miguel Ángel Villanueva on the flute, the composer himself on the viola, and Emilio Angulo on the piano, within the CD entitled: Magical Realism. Vol. II: Music for flute by Eduardo Angulo, for URTEX.
