“Sonos Falados”, an artistic activism project of the Democratic Movement of Women, to raise awareness of domestic violence and violence against women. It started with 104 pillows, many of which were decorated by women victims of domestic violence (some living in shelters), to which many others have been added, in each place where she passes, touring the country. The challenge was and still is to think of the pillow as a depository object of dreams, fears, anxiety and ambitions, and thus leave on it the shapes that circumvent concerns and express dreams on the way to freedom. The result, in addition to being aesthetically beautiful, contains an immense variety of moving but determined messages, showing that women want to overcome the discrimination and violence to which they are still subjected.

LISBON TOYS ORCHESTRA “A Journey through the History of Music” Wednesday | 11:00 am | 2 pm December 07, 2022 After a long period of confinement, we experienced an atypical psychotic outbreak in the city of Lisbon. This outbreak manifests itself essentially in citizens who circulate in groups, usually of individuals linked to the arts, consisting of a kind of collective paranoid schizophrenia where hallucination and loss of the notion of reality are the immediately observable symptoms. It will not be surprising, therefore, that they suddenly come across patients who, for example, with a toy in their hand, believe they are in possession of a stradivarius or any other quality musical instrument. When they come together, these groups of individuals come to believe that they are in an orchestra. Some believe they are great musicians or renowned conductors, others believe they are opera characters, such as Carmen by Bizet, Nemorino in Donizetti’s Elixir of Love, the Duke of Mantua in Rigoleto by Verdi, or the Queen of the Night in Mozart’s Magic Flute. . Some even believe they are angels, due to their vocal gifts. This type of hallucination sometimes generates excessive courtship and cordiality between the members of each […]

PRESS RELEASE: Spiritual Front Concert (IT) + Dr. Frankenstein (PT)+La Chanson Noir (FR/PT)
October 01, 2022 – Casa das Virtudes, Faro La Chanson Noire was born in 2007, a project by Carlos Monteiro a.k.a.Charles Sangnoir. Breaking the sound we are used to in the Portuguese music scene, La Chanson Noire shows us the darkest side of Portuguese Popular Music, combining songs sung in Portuguese, English or French, with traditional Portuguese sounds and bolder remixes. The musical influence of irreverent Portuguese names, such as António Variações, Jorge Palma or Mão Morta combines with traces of Anglo-Saxon Gothic and a varied range of sound, to create unusual and black music, with unusual lyrics and, That’s right, very interesting. Dr. Frankenstein, a Portuguese surf rock band, formed in 1994. The band’s name came about “because of their love for B-movies and American trash culture”.

The Salt, the sun and the south and a different late afternoon in Salina Félix
To the south and in the sun in a late afternoon, the participants of the first action of the initiative “End of Afternoon in Salt” were able to collect their own salt, in an experience that aims to value the profession of salt and salt flower. In Salina Félix, in the middle of the Sapal de Castro Marim and VRSA Nature Reserve, the new salineiros learned about the whole process of artisanal saliniculture, collecting the salt manually, with the ancestral techniques that the fresh salineiros taught them. Home they took an enriching experience, 1 bag of the “best salt in the world” and also 2 packs of salt flower, which they themselves collected from the herseherand. The traditional sea salt of Castro Marim results from the conjugation of the salineiro’s work with the action of tides, sun and winds, and is not subject to any kind of subsequent treatment, presenting naturally white and bright. The salt flower was also observed, although atmospheric conditions did not allow collection. Also the salt flower does not undergo any kind of processing, dries in the sun and is then packed, maintaining the taste and humidity of the sea. This initiative is part of a strategy of valorization and promotion of salineiro and, consequently, of salt, which is one of the ex-libris of Castro Marim. Providing this contact of proximity and familiarization, it hopes to increase and boost the commercialization of local products in the tourist chain. About 2 months ago Castro Marim was also able to see legally protected the name “Sal e Flor de Sal de Castro Marim” (PDO – Protected Designation of Origin).

Letrista, compositor e intérprete, que nos vai falar do seu último àlbum, “Menino do Sonho Pintado”. E também das canções de Abril, de rock progressivo, da importância da paternidade…muito sobre música, mas também sobre a necessidade de mudar mentalidades, com uma mensagem que nos inspira à harmonia, paz e amor.
