 [Synopsis]

This concert marks the premiere of two original works: O Menino da Serra by Alexandre Roque and No Colo da Tradição: Maria e os Segredos do Tempo, with text by Liliana Conceição and music by Bruno Martins. These pieces, deeply connected to the country’s cultural roots, explore the richness of traditions and legends passed down through generations. O Menino da Serra is an evocation of life in the mountains, imbued with the magic and mysticism that characterize Portuguese popular imagination. Meanwhile, No Colo da Tradição: Maria e os Segredos do Tempo delves into the symbolic figure of Maria, embodying the cycles of nature, ancient memories, and the spiritual connection to the land.
This concert is a musical journey that bridges the past and present, giving voice to new generations of musicians and offering the audience a unique experience where traditions intertwine with innovation and the sensitivity of young artists.
