Café Curto, at the table with music.
The Café Curto cycle is returning in 2025 with the usual proposal: every week a thirty-minute showcase is served, with a strong focus on young artists and emerging projects. Since 2020, more than 170 sessions have taken place, putting Coimbra on the map of the national music circuit. In addition to the express showcases, music is enjoyed in double doses in the last week of each month with Café Duplo, an artistic dialogue between different languages and geographies, resulting in a unique concert.
Gabriel Ferrandini + Ondness
Gabriel Ferrandini and Ondness are long-time friends who, through improvisation and complicity, conjure up liminal and hallucinatory states. Ondness is Bruno Silva’s longest-lasting solo incarnation, spanning a decade in the business and leaving behind a map of records that spreads across labels such as Where to Now?, Paralaxe, Holuzam and Discrepant. For the latter, he released ‘Megadawn’ in 2022 and ‘Oeste A.D.’ shortly afterwards, where very refracted pieces of dance, hauntology, dub space or the melodic tension of some minimalism converge. Gabriel Ferrandini is often found in improvisation contexts, but his bubbling artistic mind has also led him to compose, having released the albums ‘Volúpias’ and ‘Hair of the Dog’, in which he explores different soundscapes, sometimes more melodic and poetic, sometimes more existential and dense.
