José Luis Greco, a New York composer who has been based in Madrid since 1994, is one of the most important figures in contemporary music today. In this article, I present a theoretical framework to bridge the artistic and scientific dimensions in performance research. To achieve this, I explore areas of knowledge that may seem unrelated to musical interpretation, in order to establish the foundation of my study. The second part of this article briefly explains the methodology used in my doctoral thesis to examine the instrumental language in José Luis Greco's cello composition, as well as my proposed interpretation of the piece One Fell Swoop.
