Un Momento Dado is an ode to another Dutch phenomenon, the legendary soccer player Johan Cruijff. Cruijff, says De Meij, is known for his virtuosity, creativity, capriciousness and radical innovation. “I also observe these qualities in Calefax, a group that has created an entirely new chamber music genre with its unique instrumental lineup.” De Meij felt inspired to name the piece ‘Un Momento Dado’, as a reference to a baffling but funny statement Cruijff made at a press conference in his Catalan years. The phrase means ‘at a given moment’, in Catalan Spanish. It wasn’t clear at all what Cruijff meant, but the words ‘Un momento dado’ nevertheless became a Catalan phrase!
