about the author

José Vera, 71, is a self-taught artist born to “tell stories.” Serra Bonita village (Ivitiy Poran), located between the municipalities of Karaa, Makine and Riosinho, has served as an inspiration and reference point.

“I wrote here, in this house, in my village, among my family,” the artist recalls.

“I didn’t go anywhere. I got the message directly for myself, ”he explains. Pencil and pen drawings reflect the spirituality of the people. Mbia Guarani and its relationship to biodiversity.

Environmental and social messages permeate the work. With names like O Lua (Jaxy), O Sol (Quaray), Our real mother (Nandeksi ankhetengua), Erva-mate (KaꞋa), School (NhemboꞋea), the themes of the book provide lessons for indigenous peoples and especially non-indigenous peoples.

The stories show the intimate relationship of indigenous peoples with the territory. And that is why they shed light on the relevance of the struggle that indigenous peoples waged to self-delineate this territory three decades ago.

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
