A CIRANDA

Braga’s Calouste Gulbenkian Conservatory of Music returns to Theatro Circo for another double session of musicals, which has already become one of the highlights of the young musicians’ performances for the city’s audiences. This year, A Ciranda, directed by Hugo Direito Dias, takes to the stage for two nights of dance and music by the city’s promising musicians. 

The world takes many turns and, in one of these circles of the world, Calouste Gulbenkian (a Turkish businessman) meets Azeredo Perdigão (a Portuguese lawyer). This meeting unites the light of two stars and changes the vision and investment in science and the arts in Portugal. 

A Ciranda, by Adriana Moreira and Hugo Direito Dias, emits its own light in rotational movements that cross music, song, dance and literature, describing the beauty that the world offers while it turns, while time passes, in the scientific certainty that what comes is what must come, and arrives through the inevitability of the legacy that each one, even after leaving, leaves in a world that continues to turn.
