ABOUT  (EN)

THE WIND CALLS US (music and text), was created as a rallying cry for freedom, resistance and resilience. It was awarded with the 1st Prize at the Cornwall Male Choral Festival International Composition Competition 2020, and was premiered in Cornwall 2021 by the Cornwall Male Choral, conducted by Gareth Churcher.

„Mother, your son belongs to the wind 
the trees are our sisters,
and the wind guides us to Ragnarök!
The wolves taught me how to hunt in shadows,
the wind guides us all to Ragnarök!“

Os lobos ensinaram-me a caçar nas sombras,
o vento guia-nos  a todos para Ragnarök!”
