Nur Slim – “Debo gritarlo al viento: II. Hojas secas” | Learning to let go is another way of moving forward

Leaves breaking away from their place of origin find a new direction in the wind. In “II. Hojas secas”, the second movement of Debo gritarlo al viento, Mexican composer Nur Slim uses this image to explore the difficulty of saying goodbye and accepting that certain relationships must change.

Through Iraida Noriega’s voice, the composition unfolds as a narrative shaped by nostalgia and uncertainty. Its protagonist recognizes that freedom might be her destination, yet still holds onto the wish that someone would stay. Farewell becomes an emotional decision that doesn’t necessarily erase affection.

Between concert music and jazz

Written for a chamber wind ensemble, jazz trio and voice, the piece brings piano, double bass and drums into dialogue with the wind instruments. Noriega’s interpretation occupies a central place in this contemporary composition, where different musical languages converge around a shared emotional experience.

Letting the wind carry us

The dry leaves represent something that has completed its cycle, while the wind introduces the possibility of changing direction. “II. Hojas secas” finds its depth in this contradiction: letting go can hurt, but it can also create room for a new beginning. A movement that understands separation not as defeat, but as part of personal transformation.
