I’ll be leaving for a five-day research trip to Portugal soon. Included on my trip is a visit to the Museu da Música - Casa Verdades de Faria for the opening of its new space. This is part of my research into Portuguese composer, performer, musicologist, and teacher Fernando Lopes-Graça. In particular I will be focusing on his Canções Regionais Portuguesas, a collection of over 240 harmonizations of traditional Portuguese songs, and developing a resource to make these works available to the general (non-Portuguese speaking) public.
