"For her fourth album, Carla Pires is conjuring several musical geographies into her world. What is paradoxically more stunning is that while opening herself to those disperse references - whether singing French poet Paul Éluard, Brazilian songwriter Ivans Lins or Argentinian poet Alfonsina Storni - she sounds ever more like herself ... Pires has produced the most solid record of her discography. While clearly setting her roots in fado she includes bits of flamenco on 'Em Frente ao Muro', traditional percussive sounds on 'Vida Nova', samba on 'Cartografado' and a chamber-like approach to fado on 'O Tempo e a Vida'. All of these are highlights on a record where Pires proves she has beautifully matured as a fadista. When we listen to the title-track or 'Sei de Um Silêncio' she comes across as a fully confident and sharp singer".
