For this concert, they will perform in trio with Dov Manski.
The Portuguese native and New York based artists have been working together since 2005. They achieved a unique sonic world, drawing upon pure and contemplative sounds through a personal approach to melody and poetry. Their musical identity reveals both their Portuguese culture as well as a certain allure inspired by the creative artistic environment of New York. Serpa and Matos have been performing their music in countries like Portugal, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, and the United States.

Sara Serpa -voice/compositions, Erika Dohi- piano, Brad Linde - tenor saxophone
Featuring texts by Amílcar Cabral narrated by Angolan singer Aline Frazão, Recognition is an essay documentary directed by Portuguese vocalist-composer Sara Serpa, in collaboration with film director Bruno Soares. Using family archive footage from colonial Angola, Recognition takes as a point of departure, Portugal’s denial in confronting its dark colonial past. The material has been edited and transformed to create a sensory experience in which music and image are juxtaposed with texts by the revolutionary, Amílcar Cabral from Unity and Struggle, Luandino Vieira and Linda Heywood. The documentary explores the co-existence of two realities: one, verbally described by the colonized, and the other, filmed by the colonizer, proposing and imagining a new narrative, while inviting the viewer/listener to reflect on history in a visceral way.
