If time could have captured this one moment of sheer joy, the word soul would no longer be an enigma...

Such was my perception when I walked unexpectedly into the room. Oblivious to my presence, Hector was living his dream of conducting an orchestra. As I watched the finale, I was spellbound, not only by the magic of his masterpiece, but also by the transformation of Hector’s presence into an instance where the depths of joy, imagination, creativity and musical genius intermingle.

Hector was no longer the conductor. He was music itself.

Let's enter the concert hall where the orchestra is preparing for tonight's program . . ..

Tannhäuser was written by Richard Wagner and reveals the real nature of the opera, born by a fusion of two traditional sagas and dedicated to the dualism of spirituality and sensuality and the possibility of redemption through love.

An Affair to Remember is a classic love story, starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr who meet on an ocean liner and fall deeply in love. The wisdom of Grandmother is such a poignant touch in the movie that it results in a delightful piece, arranged by Hector in the style of a Rachmaninoff piano concerto.

I Love Paris Hector paints a musical picture describing his impressions of waking up in Paris. Listen to the early morning chirping of the birds, the insistent barking of the dogs and the buzzing traffic noises of the never sleeping Champs Elysees. Hector is no longer dreaming and in the final chord he is inside the Notre Dame Cathedral.

One Fine Day from Madam Butterfly is a tragic love story transcribed into a musical masterpiece by the great Puccini. When Cho-Cho-San (Madam Butterfly) sings the heart wrenching words of "Un Bel Di" the lyricist undoubtedly wrote the song as felt through the eyes of love.

Malagueña Hector skillfully arranges this popular song by Ernesto Lecuona by interspersing passages from Capriccio Espagnole by Rimsky Korsakow. He is recreating fond memories of a time in Barcelona viewing an inspiring performance of flamenco guitarists and dancers with their flawless rhythm capturing the exhilarating essence of Spanish tradition.

Contact is a powerful movie questioning life beyond our earthly existence. The music simply connects with the quest for spirituality searching for answers. Listen carefully to Hector’s attention for detail when, in the quiet middle section, the signal from Vega appears in the form of varying frequencies. When a child asks "Are there other people out there in the universe?" Jodie Foster poignantly answers "The universe is a pretty big place, if it is just us, it seems like an awful waste of space"

I will wait for you is from the soundtrack of the movie "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg", one of the most romantic movies ever made and the Grand Prize Winner of the 1964 Cannes Film Festival. Hector Olivera’s arrangement of Michel Legrand’s composition is so imaginative that it translates the music into an audiovisual experience. The movie, as well as Hector’s music, begins with the sound of rain disturbed by the distant foghorn from the dock followed by the gorgeous melody line "I will wait for you."

One Singular Sensation from the famous Broadway show Chorus Line exudes such freshness, vitality and energy that you may wish you were..."One" in the Chorus Line.

Looking through the Eyes of Love from the movie Ice Castles combines a tender love story with the excitement of Olympic Competition Skating. The music equals the characters’ heart felt emotion, which Hector expresses, in an exceptional rendition of raw feeling and uncompromising beauty. It is no wonder that "Looking Through the Eyes of Love" has become Hector’s main theme song to close concerts, to everyone’s sheer delight.

Lieve J.
