Product Information

Transoceánica depicts an imaginary bus trip form Rio, Brazil to Lima, Peru along the Transoceanic route. The longest bus ride in the world, it cuts cuts across the heart of South America connecting the Pacific to the Atlantic coasts, passing through the Amazon forest, climbing up the Andes, through the Altiplano, and finally the coastal route to Lima. As the piece begins, we hear the destination theme played softly, vague and distant. This is the traveler imagining his destination as he waits to board the bus in a dark, foggy early morning. Soon the rhythmic engines theme let us know that the journey has begun. Throughout the trip several events happen often blurring the line between landscape, people, places, reality and magic. Soon the bus is forced to stop in the middle of the night as the road disappears and passengers are surrounded by magical lights and mystical forest creatures. As they dissipate the bus continues its journey now climbing the Andes towards the Altiplano. The engines theme is now transformed into a Peruvian Huayno dance that grows in excitement as we approach the destination. Finally the solo clarinet playing the destination theme in all its brightness announces the arrival to Lima.
