2 UNANSWERED CALLS is the curious motto of this new Portuguese instrumental music trio project. The group, made up of Gonçalo Marques on the euphonium, Artur Rouquina on the oboe and the pianist André Louro, who composed the original themes and the musical direction, allows us to hear the creative work of musicians experienced in mapping new musical territories. instrumental for a wide audience.
Curious and laughable, for their everyday simplicity, are still the images that inspire and name some of the themes (O Paninho, O Aquário and Carregado), or the friendly and accomplice colloquiality of Oh Zé, Ai Bonitinha and Porreiro Pá. These are some of the open avenues of access to the rhythmic and melodic imagination that 2 CALLS NOT ANSWERED gives us to listen to in a well-woven web of captivating sound lines from multiple sources. Exploratory opening to genres, which translates into the characteristic duration of the light music of each of its themes; in the sometimes expressionist and analogical ambience of primitive cinema; or in the desire to respond to the contemporary experimentalism of the masters, along with André Louro’s spontaneous and vivacious humor that can be heard in the reading of the musical staff of the three instrumental voices.
