"First came the idea of Ouro Preto, due to the Baroque, due to this influence of Portuguese" architecture and then came Petrópolis, a city in the state of Rio de Janeiro "that was founded by the Portuguese court", Connie Lopes stressed to Lusa.
Petrópolis, a city with strong ties to Portugal and which served as a summer retreat for the court when the capital of the empire, in 1808, became Rio de Janeiro, hosts, on Saturday and Sunday, at the Palácio de Cristal, an outdoor fair with handicrafts, gastronomy, wines, porcelain, books, music, poetry and history.
The same will happen, between Friday and Sunday of next week (24th to 26th May), in Ouro Preto, a World Heritage Site, a city in Minas Gerais, whose origins date back to 1698.
There will also be space for children's programming and lectures on "The ties that unite Brazil and Portugal" and "Dom Pedro as a musician and composer".
A 'Decolonial' Sarau to show that the festival is not only about Portugal, but unites "the influences that made Brazil", such as "Africa and indigenous peoples", detailed Connie Lopes. On this occasion, the Portuguese actress Joana Solnado will take to the stage, among others.
Ana Moura, Raquel Tavares and an unprecedented musical encounter between Marta Pereira da Costa (Portuguese guitar) & Samara Líbano (7-string guitar, Brazilian) are scheduled for the two historic cities, as well as a cooking 'workshop' with the Portuguese chef Marlene Vieira.
The event is free and the curator and idealiser of the project believes that the public's good reaction will be present.
The project is to continue for the next few years, guaranteed the curator, going to "other historic cities" to fulfil the mission of "a great movement of the Lusophony and giving these people the opportunity to be together".
