The piece features the participation of the award-winning pianist Ana Lúcia Altino, Rafaell’s mother, and the refinement of their duo is evident in every musical phrase. Diálogo, according to its composer Marisa Rezende, “embraces different states of mind”, a premise wonderfully substantiated by Rafaell Altino’s versatile interpretation. The nuances of his art also embrace electroacoustic sounds in Tatiana Catanzaro’s Intarsia; and they are girded by them, creating an opulent sonic sea in the process.
