Baroque music
Music
Sexta Maior
Os Músicos do Tejo and Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz seek to construct a path seen as if from outside and sensed as right or wrong, provoking an agitation both interior and exterior, bringing together music and dance in homage to those who danced to remain alive, relevant within the state of the nation-state, decisive in the art of courtly metaphysics, alone before the eyes of all.
As part of this recital, the conference The Same Nothing in Everything: The Baroque Torsion of the Gaze and the Disenchantment of the World, by Paulo Pires do Vale, will take place in Sala Lopes-Graça on June 26 at 6:30 pm. The conference will be spoken in Portuguese without translation.
