Memórias opens the second album by Allan Abbadia.
The music was made from the story of his own family. Allan Abbadia brings African structural thinking into horizontal thinking built by layers. Clef combinations in melodic and rhythmic counterpoints will develop throughout the composition.
The rhythmic base and the arrangement was thought of from the high frequencies to the low ones.
In instrumentation, Gan (Cowbel) is the rhythmic center followed by Lé, Rumpi and Rum (a more serious Atabaque soloing freely) completing the percussions with Xhaker, Clave and Cuíca.
The drums were designed to complement the percussion.
The Double Bass maintains sustain.
In the woodwinds, flute, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones, fluguelhorn and trombone.
A choir of voices is also present in the background.
The tempo is 7/4 but we can think of a binary rhythm in subdivision by 7 instead of 8.
Travel through time and the sensations of Memórias.
