Work introduction
With a simile of Greek mythology based on the envy that Venus felt for the beauty of Eros that made Psyche fall in love, taking away the leading role of the most beautiful goddess, Estructura III das Gelb der Venus! is a work who wants to explore the human envy.
This piece development presents a heterogeneous cellular pattern mixtures, based on very insistent rhythms, with sensory references of longing sensuality, divergent sonorities and a certain perpetual anxiety. This III Estructura has been described as calegurematic, unheard of, improbable, mysterious, arcane, contemplative and utopian at a time that, through sound, managed to visualize a film of astral mirages.
