Sonata in four movements:
I. Invitation
II. Preparing the Journey
III. Staying There
IV. Returning Home
Finally the old dream to visit Nihon became a truly certainty! So, Imagination starts boiling from the very first moment and takes control over Future Experience providing a predictive interpretation ofsomething that has not happened yet - like PreCogs in Philip K. Dick'sconcept. The
music is a descriptive anticipation of a journey to the Landof the Rising Sun, starting the very moment, someone received theconfirmation, until his homecoming on the other side of the globe: Portugal, land of Fado and its longing sentiment of resignation, fatefulness and melancholia.
