Rodrigo Leão is a Portuguese musician and composer. He was born in Lisbon in 1964. He became known for his musical compositions and participation in portuguese bands such as Madredeus and Sétima Legião.
He co-founded the band Sétima Legião in 1982 and Madredeus in 1985. As his solo records started to receive increasing attention, he suspends his colaborations with these two groups in 1993 and 1994.
His solo work explores a combination of modern-classic compositions with more traditional song format and instrumentation. Several artists have participated in both his records and tours, such as Lula Pena or Adriana Calcanhotto in Alma Mater and Beth Gibbons and Ryuichi Sakamoto in Cinema.
His album, Cinema, was very successful in the portuguese market, reaching #1 in sales and its promotion concerts in Portugal and Spain were frequently sold-out. In this album, the ecletic roots of his music and the influence of cinema can be appreciated. (Source Wikipedia).

A friend pointed me on this song and when I heard it, it was for me in the category of the soundtrack of Schindler's List.

The name of the song Ruínas by Rodrigo Leão, which one is from the album Pasíon, did me think of the ruins of lost city's in the world and the ruins because of a war.

But also ruins can have their own beauty, when you see that there is most of the time new life around the ruins. And where life is, there is hope.

..........tudo o mais foi barulho, agitação, na montagem de um cenário que cumpriu e, não é mais necessário - se o foi alguma vez....

[Truus1949]

I don't understand!

Absolutely wonderful! I love the music and the pictures, and the way they glide into each other, how on earth did you do THAT!

[TheNeoByzantine]

A marcha do tempo é implacável. Fragmentos do belo que partem para o esquecimento. Brisas de poesia que se misturam com o vento. Talvez memórias que perdurem nos sonhos

Adorei as imagens e a música de Rodrigo Leão é sublime.

[kuantumsuicide]

Isto n é o tema da Lista de Schindler?

.......... everything else is noise, shaking the assembly of a scenario that failed and is no longer necessary - if ever been ....
