(flut)uações has launched!

LATEST NEWS: THE CD (flut)uações IS OUT!

I’m very happy to announce our CD of chamber music by contemporary Portuguese composers is now available!

The physical CD, with beautiful photos by Manuel Luís Cochofel and excellent liner notes by Ivan Moody can be purchased on the Neper Música site (worldwide shipping), or downloaded on Bandcamp or Spotify.

Together with the percussionists Elizabeth Davis and Francisco Cipriano and the cellist Catherine Strynckx the CD features music for flutes (piccolo to bass), cello, and/or percussion (everything but the kitchen sink) and electronics in works by Alexandre Delgado, Andreia Pinto Correia, Anne Victorino d’Almeida, Carlos Marecos, Ivan Moody, Luís Tinoco, plus a solo flute piece of mine.

The CD Launch Concert will take place on Tuesday, December 13th, at 19.30h, at the O’culto de Ajuda (Travessa das Zebras, 25, Ajuda, Lisboa). This performance will also be live-streamed for remote viewing. For details: click here.

Many thanks to Tomás Quintais of Neper Música and the Fundação GDA (Portugal) for their precious support.
