about

"The fusion of words and music pursued in sounds ranging from fado to electronic and industrial music, including Portuguese popular music and "spokenword".

TURNING POINT is a contemporary shift in the way we approach poetry and music, bringing to light the words of poets who, for some reason, were hidden from the visibility of the majority of the public.

The book "Porque a Lua se Quebrou", by the poet Carlos da Cunha, was the starting point for this creation that features the sounds and music of Simão Valinho, Lígia Lebreiro and Raquel Sousa, who also lend their voices. The texts are a compilation extracted from his poetic work.

One of the characteristics of his writing, in addition to a profound purification of the almost absolute meaning of each word, his poetry can be heard, or sung when read and the mere words sound like music.
