"The
thunder unchained the crash, the stimuli sprouted; the emotions
flew with each rhythm, wild and rapidly following the steps that
mark the elusiveness of time". |

I met Nando in a
sunny morning of March 2006 at Southbank. He came by bike, smiling
as always, dressed in yellow -or at least is what I remember, all in
yellow! it was a sunny really sunny day in London after all- He
looked so relaxed while we shared a cafe at the National Theatre
terrace (not only with me... with my husband and daughter that at
that moment was 3 months old and the word quiet doesn't described
her exactly...- Nando told me he wasn't interested in money neither
in fame, he just wanted to play with his soul to the people who
wanted to listen, to express his feelings through percussion. And
that's exactly what we did for the years we played together... We
shared our music and creation,
we saw our music discover new ways. Honest with himself and with
every single step in his entire life Nando found peace in London in
so many senses. He flew to other universes on the 2nd November 2008 after contracting a rare disease and is sadly missed by his family, friends and fellow musicians. Silvia Demetilla |

No hay dos fuegos iguales

Un hombre del pueblo de Neguá, en la costa de Colombia, pudo subir al alto cielo. A la vuelta contó. Dijo que había contemplado desde arriba, la vida humana. Y dijo que somos un mar de fueguitos. -El mundo es eso -reveló- un montón de gente, un mar de fueguitos.
Cada persona brilla con luz propia entre todas
las
demás.
No hay dos fuegos iguales. |
