"Brahms Concerto for Violin and Orchestra has been the impulse and force for my creation.
From my involvement with it and the sharing of it’s eloquence, I began to experience the most different feelings, emotions and states of mind. To these experiences I named Passagem.
Passagem is a contemporary work with powerful contrasts, leaving itself naked from other elements.
Human and poetic,
Shouts in “his” ambiguity,
Cries in “his” despair,
Transcends in “his” love
Fights in “his” fragility."
