Like reality, the game of
Monopoly reflects the inherent
logic underpinning neo-liberal
urban processes, in which the
city mirrors economic, political
and social relations. This version
of Monopoly is intended to
offer a unique exercise - an
opportunity to question the kind
of city that we want to build.
Using the city of Porto as the
board, this version subverts
some of the game’s traditional
rules, involving players in
a process of participatory
urbanism.

The Ball is a dance performance
inspired by Ettore Scola’s film
“The Ball” (Le bal, 1983),
in memory of the public
balls organised in urban
neighbourhoods, villages and
towns of Portugal. On the basis
of research into traditional public
balls, dances and their various
forms, an attempt has been made
to recreate a contemporary ball,
which is modern and pertinent, as
a unique place for social gathering
and partying, idealised by the
participants and the artistic team.
The first part of this project
involves people from various ages
from the Parish of Miragaia, a
riverside district in Porto, who
together with the dancers, actors
and choreographer, will collaborate
in performing the work. In this
manner each person is an active
element and will contribute with
their experience and memories with their body and voice in a joint
creation and festive atmosphere,
in which the general public is
also invited to take part. As part
of this participation process the
performance also includes a band
formed by people from Porto’s
various schools and associations
who together with the musicians
will collaborate in this festive ritual.

Nuno Rebelo is an inventive
and versatile musician. His work
and ongoing research with the
electric guitar has led to the
development of a personal style
of experimental guitar-playing.
He’s considered to be one of
the most innovative guitarists in
Portugal and has also achieved
well-deserved international
recognition. He composed
the anthem for Expo 98, the
music and sound design for
the performance “Oceans and
Utopias”, in the Utopia pavilion
of Expo 98, and also the music
for the fireworks spectacle
that opened “Porto 2001
European Capital of Culture”.
In the project, Non-Musicians
Ensemble the main challenge
is to create a musical work in 1
week, that may be performed
by someone who doesn’t know
how to play any instruments, but
nonetheless aims to ensure that
the performance presented will
be interesting from the beginning
to end. Without writing a single
melody or defining a single note,
the project uses the organization
of sound events and their
musical and scenic results.
Above all, it will be based upon
the availability, generosity and
commitment of all those who
take part in this adventure.

Oh Brass on the Grass Alas,
by North American composer,
Alvin Curran, is a large-scale
project involving 200 musicians,
that is performed outdoors.
Adaptation of this work to
Serralves Meadow and the
Terreiro da Sé in Porto includes
the involvement of various
music academies and schools
and their students, together with
the invaluable collaboration
of the Portuguese Symphony
Band and a partnership with the
Manobras no Porto Project.
Alvin Curran has commented
in relation to Oh Brass on the
Grass Alas that: “I got the
idea to write a piece for 350
amateur brass band musicians in
Germany, at Donaueschingen,
when I was sitting in the
Kaestner Schule at a concert of
a very interesting Indonesian
group of improvisers.... For a
moment my mind wandered,
and as I looked out the great
glass window I began to
imagine hundreds of musicians
performing on the sloping
grass and fields just behind the
school and in full view of the
audience seated inside. “Oh
Brass on the Grass Alas” was
born. Nonetheless, “Oh Brass
uma iniciativa
on the Grass Alas” was the
most difficult work I have ever
undertaken, because of the
sheer numbers of musicians
involved; the logistical, musical
and choreographic organization;
the acoustic risks of playing
outdoors; the not indifferent
job of winning the confidence
of a mass of skeptical new
music-shy performers on whom
everything depended.

12H00 AND 15H00
Repeats at Serralves on 2 June
at 13h15, 15h30 and 17h30

Duration: 30 minutes
Mono, a little stubborn circus
monkey, is the latest creation
of Electric Circus. Mono can
ride his bike, play the organ, he
screeches and squeaks, makes
everybody laugh and gives some
people a fright and some even
burst out in tears…
Electric Circus is a collaboration
between inventor Fred Abels and
puppeteer Mirjam Langemeijer.
This duo explores modern
robotic techniques, seeking
new paths, in an interesting
fusion between mechanical
engineering, electronics and
puppeteering. The robots look
truly lifelike and are moved by
remote control: a technique
borrowed from the film-industry
known as "animatronics". Mono
immediately responds to the
audience’s reactions, but where is
the performer-operator?

There’s an airport. A
circumscribed place. An enclosed
space. People leaving on a trip,
with suitcases. Passports. A
Venuee, whose rules can’t be
breached. A micro-society living
in vast corridors, constituted by
agents, air hostesses, passengers.
The supervisors keep watch.
And there’s another space, a
park. A demarcated area where
people can stroll around. They
feel fine, wander and argue, as
children play. This is a place
of rest, a place where we go to
meet others, a place where we’ll
see others. And suddenly we
see a Superman. We see him in
different places. Indeed, there
are lots of Supermen. They’re
everywhere. Incarnations of
our childhood dreams: at night,
dressed in pyjamas, a scarf
around our necks, we were
once all Supermen. Today we’ve
grown up. Small, large, skinny, fat
– ordinary people. Fragmented
images that express a sense of
incongruity, revelation and fall
of a myth. Blue Tired Heroes
by the Swiss stage director,
Massimo Furlan, is a play about
the geography of place, mobility
and fragmentation of action,
and the long term - a series of
images within a narrative, made
up of gaps, voids and enigmas.

Vexations is Satie. There is no
other way to define a work that
is as eccentric and enigmatic
as its author. Vexations reflects
the inherent originality of the
French composer and pianist,
Erik Satie (1866-1925). The score
is a confusing manuscript, based
on an unusual combination of
harmonies, which are familiar
when considered in isolation.
Satie’s work would be a miniature
musical exercise, of only relative
interest, if it hadn’t been for
the note he left in manuscript:
"To play this motif 840 times in
succession, it would be advisable
to prepare oneself beforehand,
in the deepest silence, by serious
immobilities." It is impossible to
discern whether this was a serious
indication or a provocation, typical
of the composer. Vexations
is a challenging and timeless
composition, which was only
disseminated many years later. Its
first full performance occurred
in 1963, in New York, in an
exhausting 18-hour marathon
organized by John Cage. Since
then it has been performed
throughout the world, revealing
a phenomenon that makes it
even more intriguing: despite its
apparent simplicity and successive
repetition, it’s extremely difficult
to remember - the performer can’t
discard the score and the listener
only retains a vague idea of what
he’s been listening to. Vexations
is brought to Serralves em Festa
by the Casa da Música, in a new
format: a concert/installation
using the Disklavier, which will be
scheduled to play the same motif
840 times, on an uninterrupted
basis, but nonetheless with subtle
variations throughout
the performance.

available space
Sounds and images for chameleons
is based on the projection of
videos of theatrical works
produced in recent years by
the São João National Theatre,
directed by various filmmakers, in
which exercises of transposition
range from discreet adaptation to
more transgressive “rewriting”.
Forms of recording the ephemeral
theatrical event for posterity,
and also to create new stages for
the scenes. Alongside the video
projection, the audience will
listen to radio theatre objects,
created from radio plays and also
from texts whose characteristics
are not necessarily dramatic. In
this collection, entitled “The
Sounds, Girl!…”, actors included
within the cast of some of São
João National Theatre’s most
memorable performances give
unexpected force to the sounds of
playwrights and poets…

When we talk in a group, each
of us has an idea and a different
manner of viewing the same
subject. At times someone comes
along who doesn’t know what
we’re talking about and responds
as if he were in the middle of
another conversation. In a family,
the main challenge is to unite
designed ideas, images from each
family member that will form a
single project. What will be the
result? Will we discover a solution,
or will there be an amusing,
disconnected discussion?

IMPRESSIONS OF
RAYMOND ROUSSEL
2 and 3 June, 40 hours non-stop
Venue: B3 Museu
Serralves Museum, in partnership
with the Reina Sofia Museum
(Madrid), is staging the first
major exhibition about the
French poet, playwright and
novelist, Raymond Roussel (Paris,
1877 – Palermo, 1933). “Locus
Solus. Impressions of Raymond
Roussel”, emphasises the
tremendous influence that Roussel
exercised on contemporary
arytists, not only in the field of
literature, but in the visual arts. the
exhibition features approximately
three hundred pieces – including
paintings, photographs, sculptures,
readymades, installations and
videos, aside from books,
documents, magazines and original
manuscripts – that recreate
Roussel’s universe and allow for
a reflection on his prodigious
legacy, which inspired some of
the avant-garde movements,
notably surrealism. Some of the
well-known artists with works
in the exhibition include Marcel
Duchamp, Francis Picabia,
Max Ernst, Salvador Dalí, Jean
Tinguely, Joseph Cornell, Rodney
Graham, Marcel Broodthaers,
Man Ray, Roberto Matta, Guy de
Cointet, Ree Morton, Terry Fox,
Cristina Iglesias and Francisco
Tropa.
...NAVIGATIONS/
DIVAGATIONS...
BETWEEN REEFS
AND SHALLOWS...
Artur Barrio
Venue: B3 Museu
Artur Barrio (Porto, 1945)
returns to the Serralves Museum
of Contemporary Art with the
exhibition … navigations/divagations
… between reefs and shallows…,
which will ‘inhabit’ the central room
of the Serralves Museum. The
exhibition will reinvent the room with
a new specific project, and transform
it over several weeks, before and after
the opening. The oeuvre of Artur
Barrio is surprising in the way in
which the artist constructs ephemeral
situations where the experience of
art and life subverts the place for
the presentation of the artwork as
well as the condition of the viewer. The viewer is forced to abandon his
passivity and discover and interpret
each of the artist's projects as a
physical and conceptual experience
that will expand his awareness and
knowledge of the world. In many of
Barrio's projects, perishable organic
materials, such as bread, fish, meat,
wine, water and coffee, are combined
with text, drawings and photographs
in order to propose new experiments
of the sensible and knowable world.
The place, time and discourses of
art are often the subject of criticism
in the artist's work, when detached
from human experience of the world,
which uniquely combines a simplicity
of elements and complexity of ideas.
TO WHOM WHO
KEEPS A RECORD
Mathieu Kleyebe
Abonnenc
Venue: B3 Museu
This is the first exhibition
in Portugal of French artist
Mathieu Kleyebe Abonnenc.
He has a particular interest in
the liberation movements of
the former Portuguese colonies,
namely Cape Verde and GuineaBissau, as well as in the analysis
of image production, including
illustration for education manuals,
photographic reportage and
propaganda films that translated
ideas of revolution and militancy
in the 1960s and 1970s. In this
exhibition, Abonnenc shows
a series of original works in
Serralves, particularly a medium
length feature, shot in Porto and
starring Bia Gomes, the lead
actress in most films shot by
the famous Guinean filmmaker,
Flora Gomes), that was conceived
specifically for the Museum
rooms. Produced during his three
month stay in Porto, the projects
are based upon his research in
several Portuguese archives and
museums (including CIDAC
- Amílcar Cabral Information
and Documentation Centre, the
Mário Soares Foundation, and the
National Ethnology Museum),
which allowed him, for instance,
to rethink the scope of Amílcar
Cabral’s contribution towards a
free Africa, or return to the work
of Sarah Maldoror, a filmmaker
who is a symbol of militant cinema
and the cinema-verité movements.
GROWTH AND
CULTURE
Ricardo Valentim
Venue: B3 Museu
Ricardo Valentim is a Portuguese
artist who has been living in New
York for the last eight years. This
exhibition will constitute the first
opportunity for the Portuguese
public to confront the full extent
of the graphic material — posters,
catalogues, leaflets — produced
by the artist in recent years, and
which Valentim considers as a
fundamental part of several pieces
featured in international shows
(from Manifesta 7, in 2007-08, to
the Medellín International Festival,
in Colombia, in 2010). ‘Growth and
Culture’ also features two original
projects, conceived for the Museum
rooms and for the Auditorium: an
installation titled Content of the
Lecture “Models of Democracy”, in
which the artist resorts to obsolete
projectors to confront us with
a very unique ‘classroom’, and a
twopart film Inkblot Perception
and Personality, which is based on
a psychological test invented in the
early 1960s in the USA and whose
highly questioned efficiency soon
proved completely out of proportion
in relation to the efforts, time and
money put into its creation. The
Holtzman Inkblot Technique, was
patented by Wayne H. Holtzman
in 1961, after 7 years of expensive
research and was disclosed at a time
when the scientific community was
no longer interested in personality
tests.
WALLS TO
THE PEOPLE
João Paulo
Feliciano
Venue: F2 exterior da Casa
de Serralves
The installation Walls to the
People, whose canvas is the walls
of Serralves Villa, is constituted by
the typical inscriptions and graffiti
that we normally find inscribed
on the walls of public spaces. The
virtual inscriptions can’t be seen
at first. We invite members of
the general public to explore and
discover each of the inscriptions,
by walking inside and outside the
Villa and pointing their augmented
reality smartphones or tablets at
the walls.
MY BEDROOM

2 and 3 June,
from 10h00 to 22h00
Venue: B3 Museu,
Sala do Serviço Educativo
The project for schools during
the 2011-2012 academic year,
is entitled “Bedroom, Place of
refuge, identity and evasion”. The
project suggests drawing closer
to the individual’s universe, via
the most intimate space within
the house: the bedroom. This
approximation obliges movement
of the body, an attentive gaze,
with time, of each of the scale
models presented. Visitors will
have to move around and make
an effort to observe the intimate
details of the other person: of the
neighbour above and below, or of
the building next door.
OTHER
ACTIVITIES
SUPER BOCK
CREATIVE
EXPERIENCE
2 June, from 12h00 to 01h00 and
Venue: F9 Quinta
The Super Bock Creative
Experience will produce a
collective work. Each participant
will receive a coloured stick that
they will attach to others and
so on successively. These sticks,
identical to those used in a Mikado
game, the symbol of the Super
Bock / Serralves National Creative
Industries Prize, will be added
by participants to an organic
progressive structure with an
unpredictable shape.
The evolution of the work,
which will extend throughout the
Serralves em Festa event, will be
articulated with the arched pavilion
that will be previously installed in
the same space, built from crates
of beer and connecting elements.
This modular assembled building
may be crossed by people and
sticks, according to the collective
will. The result will combine a
high-tech appearance with a lowcost aesthetic.
In parallel, in the space next to the
pavilion, people will be challenged
to play a large-scale Mikado game.

Someone who crosss the corridors

Max Capacity: 250 people
Georges Méliès (1961-1938) is one
of the great visionary pioneers in the
history of cinema, who magically
portrayed amazing feats, by drawing
from his inexhaustible fantasyladen imagination. The exhibition,
“Locus Solus - Impressions of
Raymond Roussel”, opens with one
of his films, in tribute to the fact
that Méliès’ cinema symbolised the
importance of imagination, at a time
when the fledgling art of cinema
offered a context for many new
approaches to the visual arts. With
the collaboration of the Portuguese
Cinematheque - Film Museum, this
session includes, amongst other titles,
Georges Méliès’ last film, "Conquest
of the Pole", directed in 1912.

A musical formation that has a varied
architecture for sonic exploration and
investigation into new possibilities of
musical expression and narratives.
The investigation and construction
of new musical instruments has
accompanied the evolution of
musical creation from the very
outset. Alongside the first electric
devices, the first musical instruments
using electricity as a sound source
also emerged, such as the Musical
Telegraph (1874), Theremin, (1917),
Martenot Waves (1928) and Hammond
organ (1935), amongst many others.
Technological advancements in the
second half of the 20th century led
to an exponential increase in the
variety and quantity of resources
and techniques for musical creation,
in particular with the development
of computers and synthesisers.
The 1990s indelibly marked the
entrance to the new millennium
with concepts such as Web 2.0,
open-software and open-hardware, which
rendered these resources available
to an even broader community of
artists and interested amateurs.
The Electronic Music and Musical
Production course of the Castelo
Branco Higher School of Applied
Arts has carefully monitored these
developments and trends, including
several of these topics in approaches
for a diversified development of tools
and knowledge, in order to foster
technology-based musical creation. In
order to provide an effective response
to fast technological development,
ESART’s Electronic Music Ensemble
was set up in 2007, which primarily
focuses on artistic exploration
of instruments which have been
designed and built by students
allying knowledge of acoustics and
organology to musical programming
for the creation of new timbres and
possibilities of musical expression.
but sometimes by introducing new
material. In this manner, standard
common reactions may be weakened
and structured polyphonies may arise.
For this project, the participating
musicians (including resident musicians
in Berlin with musicians from Porto
and Coimbra) will organise a two-day
workshop, in which participants will
be introduced to the sign system of
Adapt/Oppose and the selected parts
will be combined via various forms
which will finally result in two versions
for nine musicians. Participating
musicians: Ana Luisa Veloso (electric
guitar), Antoine Chessex (saxophone),
Diana Combo (turntable), João

A choreographic exercise for bodies,
which are constantly skidding. The
dancers movements are structured
around fragile and temporary
constructions, sustained by the
interweaving of gestures and intervals
that move through space thus
creating volatile configurations. The
dancers often suddenly move across
the space, as the bodies disperse,
attract, become disorganised and
are diluted within the landscape and
in the contact between the parts of
the whole. The work presupposes
intense sensorial activity, highlighting
the use of touch and creating
movement textures, guided by games
of proximity, distance and friction
between the bodies.

This is a story about “los
desaparecidos” (the disappeared)
and the methods used for their

are two brothers and fishermen
who live in an environment of

themselves in a hut, they will have
to decide whether or not to flee the
country, whether or not they should
abandon their families, whether or
not they should separate, whether
or not they can open a window.
In the midst of so many doubts, a
film director appears who intends
to film something that he supposes
took place. A means of redeeming
memory, an unusually poetic means,
of some memory. By the director of

Los Torreznos use theatre as a tool
for reflection and denunciation of
deep-rooted social, political and
human behaviour, moving between
performance and experimental
theatre. The performing duo,
constituted by Rafael Lamata and
Jaime Vallaure, works on the basis
of more direct reality, including
familiar situations, focusing on
topics that form part of our
everyday lives via a contemporary
and ironical language. Their
performances frequently involve
questioning the audience and using
a minimum amount of objects
and resources in order to achieve
maximum expressiveness and
intensity. A play on the experience
of 35 minutes. Thirty-five minutes
are 2100 seconds. The dimension
of time is not a material, nor an
action - material and action "exist"
thanks to the time variable. These
35 minutes are fundamental to
the construction of the story.
We cannot eliminate them,
because otherwise the roof would

millions of years of our Universe,
these 35 minutes fulfil their own
purpose, coming immediately after

MALUS
Hugo Antunes / Chris Corsano / Nate Wooley
Venue: D3 Ténis
The MALUS trio - formed by Nate
Wooley, Hugo Antunes and Chris
Corsano - propose an exploration
of sound landscapes produced using
the sounds of acoustic and amplified
trumpet, riffs of simple and prepared
double bass, against the background
of refined layers of drums and
percussion. Hugo Antunes is a young
Portuguese double bass player who
is normally associated to the world
of jazz. However in "Roll Call",
we can listen to his exploratory
work in the field of improvised
music and real-time composition.
In MALUS he plays alongside two
leading international musicians: Chris
Corsano and Nate Wooley. Corsano
is one of the most extraordinary
drummers of the new generation
associated to musical improvisation
and experimentation.
His tremendous expressive palette,
developed using drumming
techniques involving various objects,
transforms this instrument into a
source of melodic and rhythmic
textures. The major aesthetic
amplitude of his work is reflected in
his involvement with a wide array of
different musical situations, including
participation in a group led by the
“intelligent pop” singer , Bjork. In
2011 he performed in Serralves
alongside Zeena Parkins and Dave
Allen, in what was considered to
be one of the main concerts of the
year by the magazine, Jazz.pt. Nate
Wooley (together with Peter Evans,
Greg Kelley, Franz Hautzinger and
Axel Dörner) is one of the leading
contemporary trumpet-players – one
of the small circle of musicians who
are consolidating the emerging canon
of new experimental trumpet-based
music in the early 21st century.
We have already become used to
his experimentation with a wide
spectrum of different approaches ranging from his constantly creative
revisiting of jazz traditions to freer
forms of improvisation. From
avant-garde to “noise”, in a free
approximation to composition,
the recently formed trio, MALUS
explores the possibilities of “sound as
an invisible form of emotion”.

During more than half a century,
Bob Brookmeyer was one of the
most important figures in the history
of Jazz. A trombone player and
exceptional pianist, Brookmeyer
forged legendary partnerships with
Jimmy Giuffre, Clark Terry, Jim
Hall and Gerry Mulligan. His fame
is nonetheless based primarily on
his work as a composer and musical
arranger. From Claude Thornhill’s
orchestra on the West coast, passing
through Mulligan’s Concert Jazz
Band and the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis
Big Band in New York until his
New Art Orchestra, Brookmeyer
played a key role in reviving interest
in this type of a musical formation.
His compositions are profoundly
rooted in the big band tradition, but
simultaneously demonstrate great
freshness and originality. He had a
vast range of interests and his writing
reveals a wide array of different
influences, such as Duke Ellington
or Witold Lutoslawski. Brookmeyer
was a mentor for a countless number
of contemporary Jazz composers
including Maria Schneider or John
Hollenbeck. The repertoire chosen
by the Jazz Orchestra of the Espinho
Professional Music School as a
tribute to Bob Brookmeyer, will make
an incursion into the composer’s
most prolific period and his seminal
albums: New Works Celebration
and Waltzing with Zoe. Musical

the deep velvety voice of Mr. de
Brito and alternation between
the delicate or majestic harp of
Mr. Raon, the 'song' format is
rewritten, subverting some of
the most characteristic places of
the form, themes and situation
of a concert. The obvious

becomes sincere, naivety becomes
postmodern, taciturn becomes
festive and the ephemeral becomes
classic. In live performances,
O Espectáculo d'Ontem plays
songs such as “A Última Canção”,
“Lovesongs’ Words Are Unique”
“Papel de Rebuçado”, which
result from a challenge posed to
Pedro da Silva Martins (Deolinda),

It is commonplace for people to find
it difficult to understand each other.
This play proposes the possibility
of reducing distances between
imaginary, fantastic and concrete
universes. The insignificance of
the human being in relation to
the cosmos is a source of cultural
production. Cosmic distance has a
similar value to mental distance. Our
relative distance to the planets is as
significant as the difference between
the reality and fiction that we build.
The contemporary world produces

CONTEMPORARY
DANCE
ACCORDS
Thomas Hauert
and Companhia ZOO
Swiss-German choreographer,
Thomas Hauert has run his ZOO
Company, based in Brussels,
since 1997. Hauert arrived to the
world of music through dance.
He writes the musical scores for
his performances on the basis of
the movement that he practices,
analyses and improvises. In this
new work, Accords, his most
in-depth work with his group
of dancers, Thomas Hauert has
continued his research into body
and movement, focusing more
specifically on the relationship
between dance and music,
and continued developing
choreographic principles based
on polyrhythmic music. Another
principle developed in Accords
is that of “improvised unisons”.
Introduced for the first time in
a scene from puzzled (2007),
Hauert creates listening-based
movement “between” the
dancers, as opposed to movement
decided on in advance by a single
individual.. Although realised in
unison, which might make people
assume that it has been written,
the movement in it is improvised
within predefined rules. The
status of “leader” constantly
shifts from one dancer to the
next. The movements, initiatives,
impulses of each one are instantly
picked up and transformed by
the others. This process asks
the dancers to be permanently
listening and giving their complete
concentration, and at any given
moment to be responsible as
well for leading the group. No
one controls the movement,
but at the same time everyone
is involved in creating it. If the
work on polyrhythmic movement
juxtaposes several melodies from
the same arrangement within
a group or body, improvised
unisons reveal a continuous line
of movement. However, with
the initiative shifting constantly
between the dancers, who each
hear something distinctive and
gain different direction from it,
over time this line can end up
reflecting the different motifs in
the music. The dancers are also
free to break away from the group
temporarily. Accords involves a
“democratic” process, based on
individual freedom and permanent
attention being paid to others:
a process aimed at obtaining
a choreographic complexity
beyond that of a written piece.
Thomas Hauert chooses to
rely on the intuitive intelligence
of the body and his group of
dancers.

feel that our lives make sense,
that there is a path, makes us
stronger, gives us the pleasure
to share our work with the

Mandingue is a circus company
from Conakry, in Guinea, with
a dozen acrobats and dancers.
The company evolved from
childhood exercises performed
by the young artists in Conakry’s
beaches and is based on their
strength, joy and talent. In 2009,
in the 2ème Festival Culturel
Panafricain d'Alger, they met
with Luc Richard, the Festival’s
circus specialist who together
with Richard Djoudi decided
to development a project with
the young Guinean circus
artists - providing them with
a structure and professional
opportunities in accordance with
their talent. The company’s first
performance, Foté Foré, by Luc
Richard and with stage direction
by Luc Richard and Christian
Lucas, resulted from an artistic
residency in the Scène Nationale
de Marne la Vallée – La Ferme
du Buisson, in November 2010.
This new work, filled with
humour, vitality and poetry, is
based on the life experience of
each of the company’s artists,
in which generosity and mutual
assistance have constituted
essential conditions for survival
in a continent that has been
pillaged and agitated by centuries
of colonialism. The Mandingue
Company has been recognized
within the professional world of
circus, and was invited for the
opening ceremony of the 32nd

BATIDA
Partner: Vice
Venue: E7 Prado
Batida means “rhythm”
and is also the term used to
refer to many of the pirate
compilations that circulate in
the streets of Luanda. Every
day, new compilations appear
- directly from Musseke to the
hands of the Kandongueiros
(taxi drivers). Most of these
compositions are dedicated
to Kuduro and contribute, far
more than local radio, to the
sounds that that echo through
the streets. Batida is also the
name of a project created by
the Angolan-Portuguese DJ,
Mpula, aka Pedro Coquenão.
With a distinct and vibrant
contemporary feel, which is
nonetheless firmly rooted in the
past, Batida combines excerpts
from 1970s Angolan songs with
contemporary electronic dance
music. The music is the starting
point, but the project explores
other fields via dance, poetry,
graphic art, photography, radio
and video, including political and
social commentary but always
maintaining a festive atmosphere.
What began as a radio
programme in order to promote
new African music has slowly
evolved into a collaborative
project that cuts across
continents and encompasses
live performances with dancers,
DJs, MCs and images, and now
includes an album released by
Soundway Records in 2012.
Batida began with the weekly
radio programme that RDP
granted to Pedro in 2006, in
order to disseminate new African
music and African influences
as part of an investigation
by artists in relation to past
influences in order to update
new musical styles. Pedro soon
discovered that there was a
huge gap between tradition
and new electronic music in
Angola. In order to overcome
the shortage of music for his
radio programme he began to
create musical tracks aligned with
his perspective of establishing
relations between these two
highly distinct musical universes.
With the contribution of rappers
from Angola and Lisbon, the
Batida project progressively
solidified via hits such as
“Bazuka”. The next challenge
was to transform Batida into a
live concert. As with the music,
Pedro wanted the performance
to encompass new and old
elements. In the concerts he
projects recent images and
archive material - from the
streets of Angola, including the
tribal universe and fragments
from tribal life - behind the
drummers, MCs and dancers.
The associated dancing also
derives from the combination
of tradition and new trends
associated to electronic music. As
a result, dancers accompany the
group during live performances
of Batida. There is a notorious
and painstaking attention
to details, costumes and set
design, from the accessories to
the images used, without ever
forgetting the constant and
contagious party atmosphere.

THE CRYSTAL ARK
Venue: E7 Prado
Gavin Russom was known in the
DFA studios as “the wizard”.
This title not only came from
his masterful construction
and manipulation of analogue
synthesisers (which led him to
join the live performances of
LCD Soundsystem until their
last tour), but also in his special
interest in the magical and
ritualistic potential of music, this
“untameable force”. In his own
words, “composing music is like
taking this big unmanageable
energy and channelling it into
something that expresses
something, giving it a meaning
and a purpose.” Russom’s new
project, The Crystal Ark, arose
from this same spirit. Inspired
by music he heard during a 2007
trip to Brazil, Russom returned
to his Berlin-based studio and
composed the first songs,
which drew upon his love of
psychedelic rave tracks and his
long and deep interest in Latin
rhythms, which he had nurtured
for various years. He continued
to seek out elements that would
push the music’s arresting
energy forward. Russom invited
the charismatic filmmaker
Viva Ruiz, to join the project
and add fevered vocalisations
to the raw tracks. Another
musician then joined the group,
Alberto Lopez, in a growing
ecstatic enchantment, in which
polyrhythmic drumming played a
decisive role.
On his return to New York, The
Crystal Ark continued with its
cross-blend of genres, languages,
and sounds – and increasingly
reflected the intensity, physicality
and sexuality that pervades the
city in which it was made. The
band was also expanded in live
performances with two vocalists
and former members of LCD
Soundsystem: the master of
electronic music, Matt Thornley
and the bass player Tyler Pope
(who also performed with !!! and
Out Hud). Live performances
further the band’s body-centric
agenda by seamlessly integrating
the dancers into a vivid
performance that contributes
to express the physicality
transported by the electrifying
sounds of The Crystal Ark.

OST & KJEX
Venue: E7 Prado
Duration: 1 hour
Over recent years we have seen
growing affirmation of Norway as
a source of some of the strongest
dance and music propositions.
In addition to acclaimed names
such as Lindstrom, Prins Thomas
and Todd Terje, other musicians
have also appeared on the scene,
such as Mungolian Jetset or
their accomplices Ost & Kjex, a
duo formed in around 2004 by
“Terminator Kjex” and “Cheesy”.
Ost & Kjex literally means
“Cheese & Biscuits”. Their debut
album resulted from two years
of studio work and was entirely
composed by sounds from – guess
what! – cheese and biscuits. “Some
But Not All Cheeses Come From
The Moon” won a nomination
for best electronica album in the
Norwegian Grammies, which
recognized the quality of their
work, in which a painstaking digital
construction of elements from
House, Electro and Disco contrast
with the mundane origin of the
sounds and the comic nature
of the themes. In this manner
the duo has consolidated cult
status in Norway. They achieved
international recognition with their
second album “Cajun Lunch”,
in 2010. This work was released
by the label Diynamic run by the
Croatian house don, Solomun,
one of Europe’s most prestigious
producers and DJs with whom
they have worked since 2008. The
album is aligned with Diynamic’s
exuberant and melodic House
music, and presents various voices
and guest musicians, supremely
allying the beat of dance music
with the construction of the
songs. On the album cover, the
duo appear in pastel coloured
suits and bowler hats, which have
become their trademark image.
They have also worked with
the DJ, Jamie Jones, in a project
entitled Summertime and are
currently working with dOP, a
group which provided a powerful
night-time performance in the
2010 edition of “Serralves em
Festa”. Ost & Kjex have played in
some of Europe’s leading clubs
and most important festivals. Their
theatrical performances include
powerful live sets for dance floors.
In Serralves they will be joined by
a guest vocalist, who will combine
with Ost’s distinctive falsetto style.

GAVIN RUSSOM
Venue: E7 Prado
Duration: 1 hour
Perhaps the main guideline
underpinning the work of the
musician, producer, DJ and
visual artist, Gavin Russom is
his exploration of the ways in
which sound, vision and space
can transform consciousness
and connect the individual with
the vital energy present in all
earthly things. His well known
link to analogue synthesizers,
led to his design and production
of machines and scenic devices
for live performances, elements
which reinforced his vitalistic
convictions, allied to an interest
in magic and ritualism. Russom’s
first recorded output resulted
from his intense collaboration
with Delia Gonzalez. That
multimedia partnership yielded
albums and performances and
also sound installations. His
critically hailed album “The
Days of Mars” draws upon
disparate fields of influence
including ritual drumming,
devotional chants, spiritual
jazz, 20th century minimalist
composition, kosmische musik,
European disco and Detroit
techno. His next project, “Black
Meteoric Star”, was inspired
by the use of trance-inducing
repetition in early electronic
dance music and psychedelic
rock. His current project, “The
Crystal Ark”, which will also be
presented in Serralves em Festa,
is an ongoing musical endeavour
focused on rhythm, physicality
and movement, that relies heavily
on innovative sound modules
built and designed by Russom
himself. His technological
prowess is renowned, which
previously led him to become
the in-house electronics specialist
for the DFA Records studio He
has been commissioned to build
synthesizers for label outfits such
as Holy Ghost!, Black Dice and
LCD Soundsystem, of which he
was a touring member until their
farewell shows. A prolific and
inventive producer, Russom has
remixed tracks for Cut Copy, The
Juan Maclean and Caribou, and
has DJ’ed extensively in venues
around the world.

Attentive and demanding clubbers
in Porto are sure to have heard
the name of Tiago Carneiro.
Thanks to him, Porto can already
dance to the sound of some of
the most surprising DJ sets, with
careful dynamics and selections
and structured elegance.
With a robust musical culture
resulting from continuous and
systematic research work, Tiago
is one of the leading DJs of
his generation. He is influenced
by the sounds that, since the
genesis of electronic dance music,
have reached us from Detroit,
Chicago, Berlin or London. With
the birth of the label, Terrain
Ahead, which he founded with
Ivo Pacheco and Luís Dourado,
he has assumed the name of
Solution for his own work, as
a DJ and musician. Following
the editorial principles of open
exploration of contemporary
electronic musical production
in various aesthetic dimensions,
the music produced by Solution
has been based on combining
foundations of Techno, House
and Electro with a discreet, firm
but contained experimentalism,
with a distinctive personality,
typically exploring the more
murky territories of minimalism,
including constructions based on
crystalline precision. His aesthetic
devotion finds a parallel in the
exemplary graphic design work
that Tiago has also produced,
which together with the
dedication with which he always
works, constitute vital elements
for the set with which Solution
will respond to the challenge of
playing in this year’s edition of

Stereoboy began with Luis
Salgado and will probably
end with him. Stereoboy is a
twothousandandsuch response
to his experiences that began in
the eightiesnineties. His work
has been tailored to his process
of growing up. At the time,
the label of "teenager" was
associated with straightforward
t-shirts, real denim jeans,
dirty trainers, unkempt hair,
recorded cassettes that led to
re-recordings, genuine sketches
and garage bands who really
played in garages. Of course
this attitude seemed to make
sense in Portugal. Stereoboy
has complexified accumulated
years of pop and rock music,
resulting in the almost infantilejuvenile simplicity of someone
who doesn’t have to prove
himself. He just needed to
explore another path, show
another style, cede space to the
"beautiful" and "well made",
as a means of perpetuating
that unique period of time in
which being a "teenager" was
associated with straightforward
t-shirts, real denim jeans,
dirty trainers, unkempt hair,
recorded cassettes that led to
re-recordings, genuine sketches
and garage bands who really
played in garages. Of course
this attitude seemed to make
sense in Portugal. Stereoboy is
Luís Salgado. When we hear his
music it also seems to be us.

This group combines musicians
based in Berlin, Porto and a
North American trumpet-player.
Beins is recognized as one
of Europe’s most important
percussionists working within
the field of free music,
improvisation and composition,
distinguished by his refined
sense for temporal structures
and timbre. Dafeldecker
is a leading composer and
improviser who in addition to
his work with the double bass,
has pursued research within the
field of acoustics and electronics
and constituted a personal
sound archive on the basis of
this work. Wooley is one of
the world’s most accomplished
trumpet-players, and a leading
figure in the vibrant world
of jazz, improvisation, noise
and sound exploration which
reaches us from Brooklyn.
The Portuguese participants
include the musician and sound
designer, João Martins. A
composer and improviser, as a
saxophonist, he also explores
electronic processing tools and
new instruments which he has
built himself. He regularly works
for the Visões Úteis theatre
company and is a member
of various collectives, such
as the Space Ensemble, Lost
Gorbachevs, F.R.I.C.S,, amongst
others. Diana Combo, aka Eosin
(an anagram of “noise”), has
developed an experimental
work in the field of sound
performance and production.
She began to work with warped
vinyl records and then began
to experiment with noises
and textures deriving from
records and field recordings.
As with João Martins, she
recently formed part of an
exploratory project, combining
musical, sound and gestural
composition and improvisation,
led by Andrea Neumann which
premiered in the Trama festival
in 2011.

NATE WOOLEY
Venue: B3 Museu, Sala

Nate Wooley has been gathering
international acclaim for his
idiosyncratic trumpet language.
Time Out New York has called
him “an iconoclastic trumpeter”,
and Dave Douglas has said,
“Nate Wooley is one of the
most interesting and unusual
trumpet players living today,
and that is without hyperbole”.
Wooley has consistently pushed
beyond the physical boundaries
of the instrument through
deconstruction of the instrument
itself and its historical context.
In solo concerts, he has
striven to achieve a special
intimacy normally based on
the combination of acoustic
and amplified sounds that lead
to virtuous abstractionism and
melodic sincerity. His solo
performances are appreciated
for their human character
emphasised by a certain sense
of vulnerability and the desire to
experiment with his own physical
boundaries, simultaneously
including the audience as part of
this experience.

CAPICUA
Partner: Vice
Venue: D3 Ténis
The name may seem to be new,
but Capicua is a well-kept secret
that has been guarded too long by
Portuguese Hip Hop. Specifically
since the mid-1990s in Porto, when
she painted in the streets with boys,
and was invincible amongst the
first writers and was a powerful
MC. A lady in charge of her own
destiny, an eternal militant of the
unexpected, Capicua isn’t easy to
label. Although she is far from
the typical "robot portrait" it’s
Rap which makes her heart beat
at 120 bpm's. It was precisely her
captive out-of-the-box attitude
that won the approval of her
peers. In real life, Ana grew up
in a happy family, had a Marxist
education, studied sociology and
then a PhD in Barcelona and as she
approached the age of 30 forged
her own identity as a cross between
a tomboy, telenovela-addicted
housewife and an iron willed
resident of Porto! After two EP’s
recorded with a group and a solo
mixtape with beats by DJ Premier
and countless collaborations in
projects by some of Portugal’s
most highly regarded producers
and DJs, Capicua has confirmed
her musical trajectory with a
more ambitious album. With agile
rhyming and pungent lyrics, she
has grown in stature, backed by
instrumentals by D-One, Ruas, Sam
the Kid, Xeg or Nelassassin. She
faces the moment and movement,
with her own distinctive identity,
with sensibility, good humour
and a sense of daring. Tender and
ferocious, intimate and torrential,
Capicua rhymes with her own
identity, as a rare and precious
thing. Her album was released by
Optimus Discos in February 2012.
The single has a beat by Sam the
Kid and its title, "Maria Capaz"
(Streetwise Tomboy), runs the risk
of becoming her nickname.

CHRIS CORSANO
& THOMAS HAUERT
+ COMPANHIA ZOO
available space
Improvisation, common stories
and primary investigation of
movement is what drives Thomas
Hauert and his performers and
colleagues in the ZOO Company.
The company’s name is based on
a book, which served as the basis
for its study material. This choice
suggests an interest in animal
species and their behaviour.
Improvisation is one of the
methods used in order to explore
the universe of movement and its
potentialities – thus constituting
a tool that is used in the analysis
of forms, rhythms, qualities and
mutual relations with space and
other external influences such as
sound and music.
Hence, taking advantage of
the architectural potential of
Serralves Villa and the presence
of one of the most imaginative
improvisational drummers working
in the field of free improvisation,
Chris Corsano, we have invited
Hauert and his dance Company
to work alongside Corsano in
an unprecedented collaboration.
Corsano’s free spirit and his
mastery of both exploration and
construction of textures and
surprising rhythmic metrics has
ranked him amongst post-free
jazz and improvisation musicians
(such as Paul Flaherty, Evan Parker
or Thurston Moore, of the Sonic
Youth), and also in partnerships
with jam rock groups connected
to new psychedelism, such as the
Sunburned Hand of the Man,
Six Organs of Admittance or
the Vibracathedral Orchestra.
With vast experience of musical
collaboration, Corsano will be
challenged to expand his field of
improvisation, by working with the
movements of the dancers of the
ZOO Company.

THROES + THE

Partner: Bodyspace

Duration: 1 hour
It isn’t generally known that
kuduro and noise rock are close
relations, but that didn’t stop
Throes of Igor Domingues and
Marco Castro and The Shine
of André do Poster and Diron
Romão to try to blend these
two styles. The result of this
encounter was recorded in the
compilation, Lovers & Lollypops,
released by Optimus Discos,
with the track, “Se Ta Kuiar”.
Since then we have seen their full
unpredictability and dangerous
presence in stages of Porto
and throughout Portugal. The
unusual mix between kuduro
and noise rock, engenders an
experience which pushes out the
boundaries, almost beyond the
law. Their debut album, released
by Lovers & Lollypops, extended
their well-deserved fame: due to
their daring, freshness, and their
decision to make such a powerful
assault against good customs.

his main vehicle of expression,
whether for jazz, experimental
music or improvisation. He
plays in two groups that have
been major revelations in
terms of improvisation-based
exploratory music: the AJM
Collective and the Open Field
String Trio. His latest challenge
is an unprecedented improvised

EUROPEAN
MOVEMENT JAZZ
ORCHESTRA (EMJO)
Venue: E7 Prado
Maintaining the excellent habit
of offering spaces for large scale
orchestras, without which the
history of jazz and wouldn’t be
the same, this year’s edition of
Serralves em Festa adds to its long
lists of performances, by inviting
the European Movement Jazz
Orchestra (EMJO). The collective
was found in the spring of 2007,
at the initiative of the German
Music Council, in order to serve as
a cultural ambassador for Germany,
Portugal and Slovenia during their
respective presidencies of the
European Community. Since then,
the orchestra has encouraged the
creative development of young
musicians from the three countries
and served as an important means
of disseminating their work. In
2007, the EMJO staged various
concerts in Portugal, including the
concert that marked the closure
of the Portuguese Presidency
of the European Community,
coordinated by the double bass
player Zé Eduardo. Internationally
acclaimed as one of the most
original European contemporary
jazz groups, the EMJO has already
forged its own identity, based on a
series of original works that have
been primarily commissioned from
its own musicians. Its repertoire
includes themes composed by Zé
Eduardo, Paulo Gomes, Andreia
Pinto-Correia, Paulo Perfeito,
Susana Santos Silva (in addition to
the “naturalised” musicians, Claus
Nymark and Lars Arens), who
are just some of the Portuguese
names who have successively
participated in the adventure of the
EMJO. In 2012, the Portuguese
musicians playing in the orchestra
are Susana Santos Silva (trumpet),
Rui Teixeira (baritone sax), Paulo
Perfeito (trombone), Rui Bandeira
(trombone) and André Carvalho
(double bass).

After years of productive
exploration under the name of
The Third Eye Foundation, Matt
Elliott has been releasing some of
the most exquisite music of our
times, in his own name and in the
solitude of his creative mind. Mixed
by Yann Tiersen, Matt Elliott’s latest
album, The Broken Man, marks
another aesthetic step in the sound
of this Bristol-based musician,
without ever camouflaging his
love for European folk music folk
and keeping intact its qualities as
a catalyst for emotions and as a
supreme landscaper of dark and
emotionally charged territories.
With each album, Matt Elliott
increases the complexity of his
giant screen - offering a new
perspective of humanity. During
live performances, this screen opens
up in all its splendour and mystery,
invariably bestowing a deeply
rewarding journey.

John Cage (1912-1992),
philosopher, inventor, ritualist,
composer, student of the world
and the universe ... a visionary
thinker, and one of the key
figures in the evolution of
20th century musical thought.
The creative energy and ideas
underpinning John Cage’s
work combine a mixture of
renewal and rupture with the
structural and creative principles
of the music of his time. He
turned his back on tradition
and broke with established
forms and conventions and
rejected harmony as the main
subject of composition, thus
assuming a pioneering role and
counterweight to established
dodecaphonic thinking, following
in the footsteps of his mentor,
Schoenberg. Based on the
challenging music of John
Cage and Tom Johnson, this
concert - which reproduces the
core concept of the Promenade
Concerts of the Coliseu do
Porto, offering informal
interaction and explanations with
the public - will explore some
of the new musical possibilities
engendered by contemporary
musical creation.

CHRIS CORSANO /

JORGE QUEIJO

The first encounter between
the three percussionists, Chris
Corsano, Mário Costa and Jorge
Queijo took place in 2011 in the
context of a workshop organised
within the Improvisations/
Collaborations programme in the
Lófte space. They immediately
struck up a tremendous musical
understanding and after playing
for many hours together they
unveiled a public performance,
which surprised and amazed the
audience. Their strong desire
to continue to play together
has spawned this new concert
in Serralves em Festa. Corsano
requires no presentation - since
he is one of the world’s most
highly regarded percussionists
whose work crosses various
fields from free jazz, to pop,
passing through psych-folk and
free improvisation. Costa has a
Jazz degree from ESMAE and
his work has recently achieved
national and international
recognition through his
participation in the project,
Nebulosa by Hugo Carvalhais,
performing alongside Tim
Berne. Queijo also has a Jazz
degree from ESMAE and has
participated in various projects,
ranging from improvisation to
pop music. He is a member of
the Educational Service team
of the Casa da Música and
has specialised in producing
workshops on percussion and
installations, in particular in
special contexts such as working
with blind people.

Venue: D3 Ténis
"empty your pockets - unzip
your soul - move your assets".
Nicholas Bussmann has shed
his skin once again, now
transforming into Nicholas
Desamory to release “like
you” – a House album of such
warmth and rough elegance, it
will leave the scene all excited.
House has always been an open
genre, allowing to sample, adapt
and incorporate other styles. On
“like you” however, each of the 7
tracks opens a new window, one
leading to Bollywood, another
one to Bernhard Herrmann, and
the next time it might be Morton
Feldmann. It’s the reduced
string and vocal arrangements
that lead to this album’s specific
sound – the warmth – and evoke
the great Norman Whitfield.
But all of the sudden the
sound changes direction again
to make us realize: It is 2012!
And this is how House music
has to be in 2012. In recent
years, Nicholas Bussmann has
brought manifold works into
being. His last release was a
co-operational album with Chico
Mello: Telebossa – a mélange
of Brazilian songwriting,
precise electronics and minimal
music, receiving rave reviews
and gaining nominations for
many rankings of the year. In
addition, together with drummer
Martin Brandlmayer (Radian)
Nicholas Bussmann released two
complementary electro-acoustic
albums: Kapital Band 1 “2 CD”
and “Playing by Numbers” and
in 2010, he brought to stage a
concept for a modernized opera
with Barnes Dance. Hence it
is not surprising to find several
illustrious guests on his new
record: Hanno Leichtmann,
Florina Speth and Todosch
support as instrumentalists. And
alongside Nicholas Desamory,
Charles Ndubisi, Yusuf Ergün
and notably Lucile Desamory
lend their voices to the album. At
Serralves, there will be the
music The Irrepressibles
world premiere of the project
in an original live format which
combines Bussmann with the
guest Portuguese vocalists. “like

the end of June 2012.

Alvin Curran was the co-founder
of the seminal group, Musica
Elettronica Viva (MEV). He
continues to belong to its core
nucleus, together with Richard
Teitelbaum and Frederic
Rzewski. Created in the 1960s,
MEV proposed to break with the
conventions of contemporary
erudite music, refusing, in
particular, the musical score,
and also attempted to break free
from conventions imposed by
jazz. Improvisation thus became
an essential working instrument,
and Curran became one of the
leading musicians associated to
this practice. It should therefore
come as no surprise that he has
collaborated with the likes of
AMM, Steve Lacy, Anthony
Braxton or Evan Parker amongst
many others, with whom Curran
normally plays keyboards and
various electronic instruments and

The closing act of the 2012 edition of Serralves will be provided
by the British band, The Irrepressibles. The band is constituted by
9 musicians, some with classical training while others hail from the
world of pop music. The group’s central figure is the vocalist Jamie
McDermott (who also plays the guitar). His counter tenor voice,
using falsetto and dark timbres, conjures up universes that have
enabled comparisons with Elvis or Bryan Ferry, and also the Swan
Prince in Matthew Bourne’s “Swan Lake” or Titania, the imperious
queen of the fairies in “Midsummer’s Night Dream”.
The band’s compositions are melodic, complex and denote extremely
refined emotional power. The entire orchestra becomes involved
in a magical environment, marked by careful staging and burlesque
theatricality, in which the musicians become performers, who don’t
only perform the music but also the choreographic elements.
The concerts of The Irrepressibles are powerful and spectacular
artistic projects. The music is fluid and sophisticated, the atmosphere
is meticulously staged, the lighting, multimedia projections,
wardrobe, makeup and choreography are mixed together in a
sophisticated manner. Sound landscapes with natural timbres are
created, which are sometimes electronically manipulated, in which
instruments that are typically associated to rock, such as percussion,
electric guitar and keyboards, coexist with the violin, viola, cello,
double bass, clarinet and saxophone.
This orchestra has achieved major international acclaim and has
participated in top international festivals such as the Latitude Festival
and the Paris Quartier d'Été. It has also performed in leading
European institutions and performance venues such as the Victoria
and Albert Museum, Barbican and Queen Elisabeth Hall, in London,
or the Storchi Theatre, in Modena, Italy. An article in the Sunday
Times described The Irrepressibles as "an enchantingly theatrical pop
extravaganzama ".
