From Foot to Hand
Along the miles of a country road, the verge becomes an improvised stage where ‘rubbish’ comes to life. This is a performance divided into scenes that follows the shared journey of various shoes which, through a twist of fate, neglect or mishaps along the way, have ended up abandoned, damaged and, worst of all, mismatched.
Projet'arte
Projet'arte's activity began in 2000 with the development of several projects called “Traditional Percussion Orchestra” in public, private and IPSS schools, the result of the idea of Prof. José Maria Rêgo.
It is on young people and children that we must focus, promoting a balance in their leisure time, be it outdoor activities, sports, cultural or other, as a way of socializing, as an alternative to the “dictatorship” of electronic social networks. Traditional music is one of the best ways of facilitating this type of activity. It's not “music for music's sake”, it's something that tells us a lot, that connects us to our parents, grandparents and great-grandparents, it's an identity that we want to preserve.
In the school context, music has important advantages, it helps to control stress and anxiety, for example in assessment situations. Progress in learning music requires individual work and study, persistence and self-evaluation. Its transfer to the school context will facilitate academic success.
