This presentation is a sample of the Project Brasileiríssimo which stemmed from our natural leaning towards Brazilian music and has had a character of continuous flow, always changing whenever we find a new piece or make a new arrangement for existing repertoire. In 2015, we released a DVD to celebrate this 25-year journey of music making and building a life together. We invited seven composers to embark on this journey with us: Dawid Korenchendler, Elenice Maranesi, Estércio Marquez Cunha, Ian Guest, Liduino Pitombeira, Rafael dos Santos and Vittor Santos. Homage is also paid to Francisco Mignone and Ernesto Nazareth. For the NFA Convention 2016, these three works were chosen from this repertoire.
Rafael dos Santos is a professor at UNICAMP, whom we first met in Iowa, USA, where we were colleagues in the Doctoral course in music, when we spent time closely together for a year. We had the opportunity to see him on stage as a pianist, and to get to know several of his beautiful compositions and arrangements. Back in Brazil years later, we asked him to write a choro for our duo, which he did and named Tardes Goianas. After all, the request had been made in our home in Goiania, in a sunny afternoon of the year 2003. This spirited choro abounds with dialogs between the flute and the bass of the left hand of the piano.
