Hey there, I'm late catching up on the songs this week, been a busy week with work and home..

These three were spot on tunes and wide open to interpretation having no words.

Solstício de Inverno gave me a sense of a new beginning, something in my mind about horses or people on horseback setting out on a new adventure. Piano is always powerful in songs and whatever that wind instrument is balances in there nicely as well.

Solstício de Inverno definitely makes me want to get up and move and has a really positive vibe and upbeat tempo to it. It's got to be harder to come with a song that is instrumental only, I would say adding words makes the process far easier, as it can complement the music or fill some gaps. There is nowhere to hide with instrumental only.

Pressão - wow, that was an experience, like a roller coaster of emotion. Calm and relaxed - worry and tension - calm and relaxed - worry and tension. It was very well put together and for me it's Yin and yang, black and white, good and bad within the melodies battling each other, both wanting to be the protagonist. Those sudden and speedy piano solos are kind of intrusive on the calm of the mellow music that proceeds it. I suppose it mirrors life and the ups and downs that we all inevitably encounter along our journeys. The intrusive tense piano solos will always crop up, but they will always be followed by calm relaxed music at some stage.
