The incessant search for new sounds has led André Carvalho to discover and explore various musical genres from improvised music, experimental music, and contemporary so-called erudite music. A relentless search for a universality in language that now finds form in his new album Lost in Translation.
The trio composed of André Carvalho on bass, José Soares on saxophone and André Matos on guitar, recorded their debut album in December, with the support of Antena2, Fundação GDA, Companhia de Actores and Teatro Municipal Amélia Rey Colaço. With a distinct instrumentation, the group explores Carvalho’s compositions with an open approach, using textures, sounds and dynamics as a vehicle to aurally express each of the chosen untranslatable words. Lost in Translation is released on October 15, 2021 by the American label Outside in Music, and can be heard for the first time live at ZDB’s Aquário.
