Location
Engawa Gulbenkian Garden
In this concert-performance for attentive ears, musician and composer Nuno Cintrão draws inspiration from the world of birds to compose and create immersive soundscapes that invite the audience into deep listening.
Birdsong is a micro-symphony orchestrated solo by an illusionist-musician, blending winds and whistles, unexpected strings, wood and brass – all moving to the rhythm of birds’ hearts, with the subtle presence of their wings, feet, and beaks singing throughout the space.
Birdhouses, transformed into surprising, handcrafted sound objects, delight us with the unexpected melodies that emerge from within.
For sessions starting at 14:30, ticket pick-up is from 14:00.
