Rising Stars: Camila Mandillo & Filipe Gaio Pereira

Of Life and Death – Songs of Transformation
When Camila Mandillo made her debut at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, she was in her early twenties. The programme at the time featured contemporary works, one of her specialities. Another is her skilfully conceived recitals. Her ‘Rising Stars’ concert tells a moving story of transformation, transfiguration and metamorphosis.
In the ‘Trois Mélodies’, which Olivier Messiaen composed following the loss of his mother, and in the richly textured ‘Chants de terre et de ciel’, the ultimate themes are life, death and resurrection. In between, Strauss sings of the loss of a beloved with richly blossoming melodies. And like all Rising Stars, the Portuguese soprano will also perform a work commissioned especially for her: ‘Revolution on the tip of my mouth’ by the British-Lebanese composer Bushra El-Turk.
Rising Stars is a project of the European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO). Camila Mandillo was nominated by the Gulbenkian Foundation, Bozar Brussels, and Casa da Música Porto.
