Have you ever had the experience where some intangible factors, in the feel and smell of the air, the particular lighting of the current season align together to exactly recreate the "feel" of a certain memory of a time in your mind, and you find yourself as if in a dream, feeling yourself as you were in that memory? And the other parts of this memory are conjured up, a feeling, a person or a song you haven't thought of in a long time.
This week, a wave of dry heat and a street roda at twilight, and for days the feel of the time exactly one year ago was thinly superimposed over my daily experience. This is the song,
Nestor Capoeira's presentation (the first minute of the video)
and a part of the performance we were preparing then, in which this song was the opening (unfortunately I don't have a video of the beginning of the show).
Batizado - Spring 2007, Professor Ido. The performers here are Grito, Apache and Nativo.
