Biography

Life is a big “ciranda”, one of songs, dances, meetings and mismatches. At the moment I have been looking for inspiration and answers for this ballet at the postgraduate Doctorate in Music at the University of Aveiro (INET-md). I am in an artistic research that relates musical composition and spirituality from a spiritual perspective: the spirit world. The fascination with this theme comes from a long time, either in readings, personal experiences, or working as a volunteer in Spiritist centers in Brazil (Fortaleza and Salvador), and currently in the Light and Peace Spiritist Association (Associação Espírita Luz e Paz) based in Aveiro, Portugal. I work as a guitarist, educator and composer. Speaking of art, it is worth mentioning the Concerto for Guitar (classical guitar) and orchestra, called Aporia, which reflects the master's degree study at the Federal University of Bahia on musical intertextuality and linguism. I taught as a postgraduate teacher in the area of ​​music education at Graduale College and had the opportunity to teach in the undergraduate degree in Music at the State University of Ceará, Brazil. I have been heavily involved in festivals, exhibitions, seminars, conferences and congresses of various kinds, as well as playing in many of them. It is an interesting and stimulating activity, as it makes people meet and get together. My areas of interest are: musical composition, intertextuality, linguism, spirituality, spiritual and spiritist philosophy.
