Free Speech by João Sousa & José Lencastre





"Yes.

You, me, the drums, and the saxophone.

The duo that dialogues. You and I who listen attentively to freedom and restraint.

Free Speech evokes freedom of expression. The confrontation, the agreement, the common

thread, the controlled chaos. This is the place you and I are going to travel. This is where

they traced our trip.

João Sousa and José Lencastre created a coherence of speech that hardly one of us will be

able to break. We enter a place that evokes fracturing subjects such as destruction and

death.

Before freedom, we have the revolution (which has nothing linear). It's bittersweet. We

continue: you and me. We are the audience of a world in which freedom is ambiguous

depending on the reality of each one of us. A record where the revolution is long until it

comes to a short freedom.

Freedom is like a short loop. So short that leads us to Cabo Delgado and Marielle, in the

relentless search for a quiet moment.

The journey between drums and saxophone intensifies. You and I: continue to breathe. We

are free.

We have the freedom to feel. You and me.

With the voices of João and José we seek free speech".
