about

"Passagens Harmônicas (for Danielle)" is an improvised harmonica solo, although being a more later recording, made with a more decent sample rate than the other ones. It was delivered as a birthday gift for Danielle Demos. But it can also be understood as a call for purity and birth of sounds anew, in response to the previous track, "Lost Notes Remixed" and as an ending note for the album.

It was a diatonic harmonica, but I didn't follow the principles of making a linear melody out of it. Instead, in this piece, I intended to discover the harmonics and make a more breathing percussivity out of the harmonica. It's a piece that evokes some desolation, dementia, but it finds feelings hope, redemption and satisfaction with the gift of innocence.

(A secret behind this track: a female cat is heard during the first seconds. Her name was Shayanna and she wanted to call my attention (to serve her food, obviously) while I was recording it with an empty house. She's now deceased, sadly. I want to dedicate this track for her remembrance.)
