Description

It began as a workshop and is now a quasi-record. The work and universe of Sophia de Mello Breyner, revisited here in 8 original themes, where the freedom of poetry and the sea intersect to bring out the utopia of cities, of the blank sheet of paper synonymous with building a new world. A musical project by Ana Bento and Bruno Pinto (Gira Sol Azul), intertwined with the visions and scenic versions of Joana Craveiro. Syllable by syllable, image by image, note by note, a new poem emerges. It is engraved in the flesh, in the voice and in space, as poems do. The sung words that linger.
