Pedagogies of Teatra Encounter
Pocket show
With: Assucena
Pocket show by Assucena, featuring songs from the album Minha voz e eu. A talk between voice, distortion, melody and technology. Assucena presents her musical intimacy from the study of timbres and sensitive manifestations of her voice. “My voice is my freedom’s concrete and ethereal metaphor,” she says. Through beats, acoustic and electric guitar, the authorial repertoire blends with the tradition of MPB, including names such as Gonzaguinha, Caymmi and Gal. Tradition meets the contemporary.
