It has been a long absence

I will come back. I'm just cleaning and decluttering the blog.
Meanwhile, I leave you with this beautiful music.

I'm still here

I've been very busy in other corners of the blogosphere but so you can see I'm still here, here you have this music, now my favourite one.

It's time for this already !

I find myself now singing this all the time.
And I began to buy things for Christmas already.
I bought napkins, kitchen roll, Christmas tree balls, nice strings and bows...
I'm in the spirit of the season.

What about this one?

Isn't this a beautiful music?

Alla Notte



Adapted from the Adagio de Albinoni.

You must see and hear the original too.

Magnificent! I like it so much since the beginning of my teen years!

The beauty around us

I've been seeing, for four days, the visit of the Pope.
As a deeply catholic person, I was in Heaven.
Most things I saw in television but in the first day I went to Lisbon, to Terreiro do Paço, to the Mass said by the Pope. We were happy. It was the most profound hapiness. We saw the Pope near us in a distance of around 1.5m. when he was going out.
So, today, after four days of pure joy, after he went away back to Rome, with my soul like burning brass, I went to listen some music to calm down.
It was then that I heard this sublime music that has absolutly nothing to do with the Pope but it's just so beautiful.
You don't need to understand the lyrics.
Just listen the beauty.

She is a very known brasilian singer and he is one of the biggest portuguese singers, poets, composers. My uncle is so lucky to know him quite well and I like him so much since my teen years.

He's a very handsome man, perfect lips and nose, a perfect arab, like the people in Alentejo are - arabs, I mean.

Ah, the beauty around us.

Solo Dios basta

As I am in a music mood, this one from Taizé and with words of St. Teresa de Ávila.
It gives me always a sense of peace.
Praise the Lord.

Erik Satie

I have a passion for this music.

It's so autumnal, almost mystic. Gives me a sence of peace and well being. At the same time makes me feel alive.

For you all.

Have a good weekend.
