images-4Four Portuguese Folktales and a Lullaby consists of a series of folktales which I have adapted. It was my goal to incorporate traditional stories with a language that allowed me to explore different atmospheres while still remaining faithful to certain traces of Portuguese traditional music.

II. The Strong and the Strongest

III. The Nightingale

IV. The Old Man, the Boy, and the Donkey

V. Lullaby (Sleep, Sleep my Dear Baby)
