about

“Tateabilidade” is a cycle of five works, composed and performed by Hugo Vasco Reis, developed through the act of experimentation, which relate the Portuguese guitar, objects, electronics and the sense of touch.

The Portuguese guitar is placed on a table and the sonic discourse is constructed through its interaction with the electronics and with the various objects that surround it, such as stones, strings, erasers, files, plastics, bows, e.bows, aluminum foils, glasses, speakers and microphones.

The only fixed interpretation for the purpose of preserving is this phonographic record. In live performances, it is not about preservation, but rather about tactile possibilities of experimentation that happen in the moment and that leads the discourse to unexpected sonic forms.

“Tateabilidade” is a sound immersion in which all acoustic and electroacoustic sounds are coming from the Portuguese guitar, presented here in a less conventional way in relation to its tradition. The sonic coexistence assumes a free and non-synchronized structure, where touch, experimentation and listening try to encourage an approach that reflects contemporary practice, the spatio-temporal dichotomy and encourages the listener to reflect on the instrument's sonic possibilities.
