Sobre o álbum

In 2007, Rodrigo gave music to the images of the great tv series «Portugal – Um Retratp Social» (Portugal – a social portrait) and took it to several portuguese venues that applauded the music that helped to define the sociological protrait of a whole country. “I did it all with a very intuitive approach. I was not asked to write specifically portuguese things and I composed as I normally do. But there’s no doubt that a very portuguese melancholy got into the music, due to the images i worked with», Rodrigo himself explained. In fact, Rodrigo’s music always had the ambition of relating itself to images, such is its evocative power. With this Project, that ambition was fully realized.
