"With the rare format of a violin and percussion duo, the partnership between Maria do Mar and Cesar Burago focuses on detail, nuance, and subtlety within a context of structured or spontaneous improvisation and an exploration of the timbral possibilities afforded by the combination of these instruments made with wood, metal, and fiber, pushing their distinctive acoustic characteristics to the limit. Key figures in the Portuguese experimental and improvised music scenes, the violinist (Lantana, Arpyies, gRaO, Mayhuma, and collaborations with Joelle Leandre, Carlos "Zingaro", Ernesto Rodrigues, Sofia Borges, Marcelo dos Reis, Luis Vicente, Yaw Tembe, and Joana Guerra) and the percussionist (member of groups with Sei Miguel and associations with Manuel Mota, Rafael Toral, Oren Marshall, and Ernesto Rodrigues) are particularly drawn to blurred aesthetic boundaries and the intersections between musical languages - such as contemporary classical music and jazz - within a field of metric possibilities and impossibilities where the violin may serve the creation of textures and percussive sounds, and the percussion instruments be involved in the construction of melodic lines."-Creative Sources
