Ep. 12: Interview with Thomas Gueglio

Tomás Gueglio is an Argentine composer currently based in Chicago. In his creative work, he devises surreal sound worlds through the blending of a variety of musical lineages and styles. Elements central to his recent work are private languages, the logic of dreams, and, as of late, melodramas and radio soap operas.

“Tomás Gueglio creates musical environments that facilitate subtle examinations of timbre, phrase, and gesture. He eschews bombastic surface activity in favor of substantial multi-layered textures. The results are beguiling and moving, music that lives in a space that is balanced between the visceral and tactile on one side and the curated and meticulous on the other. ”
