Composed at the request of the flutist Mirian Cardoso. The premiere was accomanied with photos of the places where my music wanders. They are images of Parque das Naus – the place where the Portuguese caravels landed in my hometown, São Vicente, SP Brazil. And other images made by the musician/ pianist/ imaginative João Vasco Almeida in Cabo Espichel, Portugal.

Program Notes
Parque das Naus is where I was born – Saint Vicente City, Brazil – it was the harbor of the Portuguese ships, caravels; today it's a surreal, childlike memory garden: taking shelter in welcoming shadows, immense and diffuse figures of time trees, exposed roots, bigger than me. Centenary trees. Porta do Sol (Door of the Sun): entrance to Saint Vicente Bay, difficult bar, big waves. From where we went out to sea, for family fishing. Where my father's ashes were, Berceuse to him.
Now Cape Espichel is my neighbor, where I live in Portugal; from there you can almost see the other side of Atlantic, the place where I was also born; I see the Espichel’s Lighthouse like a guide showing the route/ return to a cradle of mine.
Beyond the Cape, I trace the journey of my life looking to skyline.
: -Blue skin that covers, the journey/ micro-being recollecting in the tide of the Endless: I was there I am here I was here I am there…
