A double CD of original contemporary music, by one of the greatest Portuguese composers
This album comes almost seven years after an intermezzo that António Pinho Vargas called an interview necessary, because it helped to create a new relationship with the piano. An intimacy evident in this album, for its deceptive simplicity of music. Just to whet your appetite, start with the tribute to fellow musician and composer, strangely in our beloved country, Tom Waits. The melody is a term of emotions and contradictions, a bit like the Australian musician. That love does not fool me, been working weeks on the original theme music by José Afonso, better known as Zeca Afonso, and I think the result is wonderfully audible. Words for what?
June, do not know if it's a name, or just one month, no matter, it is a tender and gentle melody that will climb, is the prelude to a moment. What? Let yourself go, to sink into their memories. Another raid, with the theme black fate, we can recreate the feeling impressed by the Portuguese guitar on a piano? I think we can. There is something disturbing and painful in this melody. It speaks of silent screams, burning and agony. Dancing with the birds is clearly my favorite, is emotion in its purest sense. Then there are different times, which gave strong impetus to this topic and make this unforgettable melody. It transports me to an urban setting full of people who hurried along the street on one side to another in groups, frantically in different directions in a normal day's end. Like birds.
