#INTERCONNECTEDNESS IS OUT NOW

Album nº10, #Interconnectedness is out now!!!
@GalileoMusic (DE)

Interconnectedness is about humanity and the way we are all Interconnected.

"This music is a result of everything that has happened to me in the past 4 years and the World in the past 2 years. The experience of loss has changed my perspective of life and consequently, it changed me and my music."

The pandemic challenged and questioned values, morals, and humanity, and everything is still so uncertain and vulnerable, this music exposes exactly that vulnerability.

"As composers, me and Theo went through major reflection as artists and there was a greater amount of experimentation in the production. The longing for stages and tours made us reminisce on the many performances around the world and bring this joyful element to the album. "

Interconnectedness was recorded and produced by Carmen Souza and Theo Pascal between Lisbon and London with different formations, morphing into another chapter of this duo musical partnership.

"As with every album that we have made throughout all these years, the music always evolves to other perspectives and meanings as it is performed in the many stages of the world, so I look forward to seeing what this music has in store and to accompanying its evolution."

Feat the amazing talent of Carmen Souza, Theo Pascal, Marcos Alves, Zoe Pascal, Elias Kacomanolis, India Pascal, Ben Burrell and Lenny Sendersky
