Julio Resende: Sons of Revolution

by Pedro Keul
December 24, 2023

When he was a child, Júlio Resende ruined many of his father's vinyl records, as children at play may unintentionally do. But in due course he became one of the most accomplished pianists of his generation. The proof is his album Filhos da Revolução (Sons of Revolution), on which Resende went back to his father's roots to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 1974 Portugese revolution--what became known as the Carnation Revolution--which overthrew country's right wing, authoritarian, colonialist dictatorship.
