Portuguese poetry (popular and erudite) will be sung by Cristina Rosal and Ana Milena Gaspar. They will be accompanied by the musicians Pierre Gillet (Guitars – 6 and 7 strings), Miguel Rosal (Bass and Double bass) and Thibault Dille (Accordion). 14 songs will be recorded.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="5_no_quintal" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/610/5_no_quintal.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> In this project Poets’ words follow a line of joyous and sound affections composed of “saudade”, oceans and people.</p> <p>  </p> <p> “ESPELHOS” has already been preformed in Brussels and Brazil in 2011. An outcome of this is the desire to record the musical experience into a permanent record (CD) available to a greater number of people.</p> <p>  </p> <p> “ESPELHOS” is a musical project of the association D’ARTE, with artistic direction of Cristina Rosal and the participation of young Portuguese and Belgium artists.</p> <p>  </p> <p> D’ARTE – a non-profit organization under Belgium law – was created in 2002 in Brussels. Since then it has been active in its mission of producing and promoting shows around Lusophone music. Multiple concerts and artists meetings have been organized, giving priority to support young professional or amateur musicians.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <a href="http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/376305Darteespelhos.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/376305Darteespelhos.jpg"></a></p> <p>  </p> <p> The funds collected through this “crowdfunding” initiative will finance the production costs of the CD, from the studio recording to the final product.</p> <p>  </p> <p> The CD will be produced in March 2013 and its presentation will take place in early summer 2013.</p> <p>  </p> <p> The participants in this project were born in Mozambique, Lisbon and Brussels and they share the same sense with regard to singing and music composing.</p> <p>  </p> <p> They say about themselves:</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Cristina Rosal</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>“I try to sing the words of my places – Mozambique, Brazil and Portugal”.</em></p> <p>  </p> <p>                   <img alt="Cristkkbb" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/705/CristKKBB.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Ana Milena Gaspar</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>“I have already participated in multiple musical projects as a singer.

Our statistics show that in average around 21% of our recipients open our messages, which leads to an attendance of our concerts of approximately 400 people (2 sold out concerts in a 200 seat venue).</p> <p>  </p> <p> We think it realistic that 20% of that loyal public to D’ARTE (80 people) will make a financial contribution to the project. We expect an average contribution of €40, which means that we should be able to raise €3,200.</p> <p>  </p> <p> We also count on:</p> <p> – Social networks of each participating artist.</p> <p> – Small meetings/parties where this initiative will be announced and through which we’ll try to collect some funds.</p> <p> – One regular sponsor of D’ARTE has already confirmed its participation.</p> <p> – As soon as the product (CD) is finalised we’ll organize presentation concerts.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Painel_espelhos_final" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/971/painel_espelhos_final.jpg"></p> <p>  </p>
