The Walls of Monção
As Muralhas de Monção
The Walls of Monção is a programmatic and evocative work inspired by the legends and people of Monção, Portugal, whose stories echo through time. The musical writing unfolds narratively, alternating moments of great intensity and martial character with more lyrical and contemplative sections. Throughout the work, the harmonic language and textures explore contrasts in dynamics, instrumental color, and thematic development, creating an epic and cinematic atmosphere. The piece follows a progressive structure that culminates in a grand finale, highlighting the symbolic and historical strength of the theme that inspires the composition.
