Program Notes
Based on the assumption that the adapter is first an interpreter and then the creator of a new work based on the original, Fragmentos de vida intersperses excerpts from the "Livro do Desassossego" with musical narratives. The tension between the non-narrative literary excerpts and the composition of movements that explore musical narrative techniques was the motto for the creation of this work, which is divided into six movements and two short interludes, in which the narrator performs solo.
