à Guitarra by João Ferreira Martins
-PT-
Numa destas manhãs, ainda com microfones montados de uma sessão de gravação no dia anterior, sentei-me a tocar guitarra. Pensei para mim: vou deixar a gravar, nunca se sabe...
Afinei a guitarra, toquei alguns temas que compus há mais de uma década, algumas canções que pertencem muito determinantemente ao meu imaginário, e compus de rajada uns temas/improvisos meio estruturados.
Assim, sem expectativas, e aproveitando um devaneio matinal ainda sem o café tomado, nasceu este trabalho 'à Guitarra'.

One of these mornings, with microphones still set up from a recording session the day before, I sat down to play the guitar. I thought to myself: I'll leave it recording, you never know...
I tuned the guitar, played some songs that I composed more than a decade ago, some arrangements for traditional songs, and I composed some semi-structured themes/improvisations in bursts.
So, without expectations, and taking advantage of a morning daydream without having had coffee, this work 'à Guitarra' was born.
Recorded with Neumann U87ai pair, Neumann TLM102 pair for room, through Audient ASP800
