SUMMARY:Philip Glass
DESCRIPTION:Fascinated by the films of the French director Jean Cocteau\, which he saw in his adolescence in Paris during the 1950s\, the American Philip Glass was already one of the most important composers of his generation when he decided to make a trilogy of adaptations based on Cocteau’s work. The first of these was the opera Orphée (1993)\, based on the 1949 film about the myth of Orpheus — the poet and musician who moves heaven and earth to bring his beloved Eurydice back from the underworld. \nThe director chosen to stage Orphée in Rio de Janeiro\, the Brazilian stage director and filmmaker Felipe Hirsch\, reveals that he was greatly moved by the fact that\, during the composition of this work\, Glass was engaged in an intense personal struggle to help his wife\, the designer Candy Jernigan\, in her fight against cancer. According to the director — «Philip Glass transformed Jean Cocteau’s masterpiece into another masterpiece. It is somewhat unusual but being unusual is one of Glass’s most distinctive characteristics.» Daniela Thomas\, a frequent collaborator of Felipe Hirsch\, met and worked with Philip Glass in the 1990s and they both considered the possibility of eventually working together. \nFelipe Hirsch says that\, in the staging of the opera Orphée\, he made a work that was «highly centred on Jean Cocteau»\, a multiple artist — a poet\, novelist\, playwright\, filmmaker\, actor\, stage director and designer. In his adaptation\, he was influenced by the work with mirrors of the Czech set designer Josef Svoboda\, besides the mirrors of Cocteau’s own version of Orphée. The mirror is another character from Orphée\, symbolising the relationship with death and old age. According to the stage director\, it is a profound reflection on the place in life that is currently occupied by each of us in this situation\, in this context. It is the reflection of all artists who reach a certain age\, a certain level of recognition\, and who reinvent themselves through their love of art.

SUMMARY:Club Makumba
DESCRIPTION:Club Makumba is one of the most recent musical projects on the current cultural scene. It had its origins in the partnership created between Tó Trips (Dead Combo and Lulu Blind\, among others) and João Doce (WrayGunn)\, who are now joined by Gonçalo Prazeres and Gonçalo Leonardo. \nClub Makumba is a free\, spontaneous and tribalist exercise. Club Makumba’s first album is set for release in January 2022 and opens the doors to a journey through the sounds of the Mediterranean and an imagined Africa\, offering us music that is free of prejudice and knows no borders. \nAfter the preview that we were given at the 2019 edition of the Super Bock em Stock festival\, Club Makumba are set to hit the road with a tour beginning in spring 2020. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
