I have always had music as my cure, my best friend in any situation. I am eternally grateful for having a piano thrown into my hands at the age of 5. I wrote my first song at 10, just on the piano. For Mother's Day. No lyrics. I hadn't lived long enough to think I could write about something more interesting, to me.

​

 

Since then, there have been countless moments when I sat at the piano, surrounded by friends and colleagues who wanted to sing "that song" that they had heard over and over again, that is part of everyone's life. I play any song by ear.

​

 

I write songs without thinking. It just comes out of my fingers and soul. After the five hundred turns that life has taken, three albums published in Portugal with wonderful guest musicians, thousands of singing and piano lessons, I feel that there is at least one thing I know how to do.  And that's a lot. Sitting at the piano and singing music with soul, little rhythm and a lot of love. And sometimes just playing the piano and letting it flow....
