luthier. His work is centred in the composition of a particular sonorous
and musical language, the result of total experimentation using classical
instruments (cello, bass, guitar, organ…), sampler and invented instruments.

Before starting his solo path as Truna,
the Valencian Andrés Blasco participated from a young age in diverse
musical projects. From the most important ones we need to mention
Carmina Burana, group that during ten years worked actively publishing
with different record companies and performing numerous concerts
in Spain and Europe (Bienal de Arte, 1990 - Tesalónica, Greece).
His later collaboration will be with Fitzcarraldo, where he starts
to generate a more personal musical language using a collage close
to experimentation, editing the CD "Granero Responde Ovejas" (CD,
Por Caridad, 1994) and going on several tours through Spain and
France. He after moves to Belgium, living there for 4 years, where
he dedicates himself entirely to the sonorous experimentation and
the creation of new instruments with the King Kong duet.
From 1999 onwards he lives again in Valencia centring his work especially
in two areas: the creation of new instruments as electronic luthier
and the composition of a particular sonorous and musical language,
the result of total experimentation using classical instruments
(cello, bass, guitar, organ…), sampler and invented instruments.
These new instruments work as sonorous sculptures which Truna also
uses as interactive installations, inviting the spectator to play
and interpret with them.
His musical facet is extended to other artistic areas such as the
dance, collaborating in different shows, and the creation of pieces
requested by different artists and exhibitions. He has also shown
his works in different art expositions (Ciclos de la Sala Naranja
2000-04, Valencia; Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Alicante 2003;
Encuentro de Arte Público de Ribarroja 2004; art galleries in Brussels
and Liège in 1997...).
Recently he has presented his last work Zoonírico in the Escena
Contemporánea festival in the Círculo de Bellas Artes (Madrid) and
in the Festival Nits d´Aielo i Art, both directed by Llorenç Barber.

"Behind this name we find the personality of Andrés
Blasco Ramos, former member of two groups from Valencia that reached
a certain popularity in the boundaries of rock and experimentation:
Carmina Burana and Fitzcarraldo. Later on, he was member of El Otro
Ilustre Colegio de Patafísica and left to Belgium, where he took
part in several sonic projects and subsequently made performance
actions until year 2000. When he returned to Spain, he took up his
job as an electronics luthier, created new instruments and performed
new actions both in art galleries and in the street. Having in consideration
his work, it is impossible to tell the provocative, pataphysical
part from the musical one, his performances let fly the freedom
of happenings and the thoroughness of dada always in an absolutely
personal sonic and scenic background, soaked with humour and white
magic." (LEM Festival 2003)
