MIGUEL TRELLES This music is intimately related with the stories I grew up with and with the Spanish speaking Caribbean where I am from and which I keep up with. I think art is important in society because it is useless and out of this uselessness useful ideas can come forth effortlessly. Because utility is not aim, art allows for a broader scope than the typically utilitarian one, thus helping everybody relax AND often arrive at ideas, emotions, and even useful solutions they might not have thought available.
