Roberta Benjamim | Cantos da minha casa – Songs of my Home or Corners of my house

Cantos da minha casa – Songs of my home or Corners of my house

Corners of my house
Songs of my home or Corners of my house

In Portuguese the word “Canto” can mean a point, a corner, or even the location of an address, and also a melody or set of melodies sung. In view of the current situation of isolation in our homes, these various meanings came together in this performance of songs from my land, Brazilian pieces for oboe solo, recorded in a corner of my house.
