In a setting designer by architect Manuel Aires Mateus, the stage Will consistof an ephemeral installation made of straw balés, creatina a unique atmosphere which emphasises the simplicity and power of nature.
This concert promises to bem mucha more than Just a musical performance; it will be a sensory experiencie where architecture, music and nature come together in sublime harmony. The presente of Mario Laginha, onde of Portugal's most renowed jazz pianista and composers, adds even more depth to this event. His style, which combines improvisation with a unique melodic sensibility, fits perfectly into this context, where the naturalness of the space dialogues with the creative freedom of the music.
Manuel Aires Mateus' intervetion, using straw bales as the centerpiece of the stage, is not just an exercite in aesthetics, but a return to the roots of the land, a tribute to the agricultural cycle and the Alentejo landscape. The bales, arranged with architectural rigour, highlight the simplicity of the countryside and contrast with the sophistication of the music of Vasco Dantas & Mario Laginha Trio. This approach reflects the essence of the the area, where tradition and modernity coexist, creatina a symbiosis between Art and Nature.
The concert at the Herdade da Malhadinha Nova Will be an invition to contemplation. The audience, envelopes by the serenity of the Alentejo, Will have the opportunity to witness the union between music and the countryside, observing the beauty that emerges when they meet.
This evening is expected to be memorable not only for the musical quality of Vasco Dantas & Mario Laginha Trio, but also for the creative vision of Manuel Aires Mateus, who transforms straw bales into art and landscape into a stage. A rare experiencie, where each piano note can be heard like a whisper from earth.
