For cello solo
Êxodo was one of my first music work I composed when I moved from Brazil to Leipzig (Germany) in a pretty cold winter of 2017.
I was reading a Brazilian actor and philosopher Nilton Bonder, whose book 'The imoral soul' helped me to contemplate the some questions about human existence and the search for space and identity.
Through his analysis of the flight of Moses and the Jewish people from Egypt, the author reflects about 4 necessities of the body when facing challenges. He observes these 4 types reactions as a ‘code’ of the soul and moral ideas that relate the individual to society.
Each movement represents one of these emotions (Choleric, Sanguinic, Reluctant, Undisciplined ) . The intention in this work is to create a music interpretation of the manipulation of space through gesture and emotion. Each movement, although scored, has a commitment to an unusual contemporary rhetoric.
