A new project for 2022
I started writing some Jazz songs in 2006 but I left them in the drawer, abandoned. However, this academic year I enrolled in the Jazz workshops at the Hot Clube. It seemed like a good time to start over with the songs, what do you think?
Some works that gave me pleasure to do
Although I stopped writing arrangements to dedicate myself exclusively to composition, some turned out to be interesting. Maybe if the right opportunity comes up I'll do some more of these, who knows?
Check out my most recent song from my Jazz Songbook - Canção do Amor-Perfeito, with lyrics by the Brazilian poetess Cecília Meireles. And while you're at it, also check Horas Rubras, this time with lyrics by the Portuguese poetess Florbela Espanca. Two beautiful poems by two great poetesses.
Commissioned by the Municipality of Pinhel and by Maestro Ferreira Lobo, "O Falcão d'El Rei" (The King's Hawk), is a cantata with libretto based on the homonymous historic romance by Dr. José Pereira da Graça, which portrays the events that anticipated the Battle of Aljubarrota.

My version for Feminine Choir (SSAA) of this important and well known religious text.
