Colours, Shapes, Textures, Stories, Dreams, Poetry. New Vintage mirrors our 20-year journey of sound experimentation and artistic creation! New Vintage celebrates Portuguese music and musicians! New Vintage is now our reflection! The Vintage Quartet has been acclaimed and honoured not only for its technical and musical excellence, but also for the creative and innovative capacity of its projects. The Quartet's long experience has motivated the development of an innovative project, challenging some of the best young Portuguese composers to write original music for clarinet quartet, as a way of contributing to the promotion and dissemination of Portuguese music.
