Post Cantar da Emigracao
Hi everyone, here is my most recent video: a story by 19th century Galician Poet Rosalia de Castro, portraing the lives of women left behing as the men emigrated to Cuba in search of a better life. "Widows of the living death" she called the mothers, wifes and children left behind. The portuguese title means "The Song of the Emigrants".
Curiosity: The young girl behind me in the still image is my grandmother, born in 1911, passed away two weeks ago with the beatiful age of 106.
Subtitles available :)

Beautiful story, haunting and mournful. I loved your singing and playing. Excellent video production as well!

A beautiful and meaningful piece Rod. It definitely reached me.

Also, as Alain mentioned, a fitting tribute to your grandmother. It sounds like she will forever be with you in your music.
