It was a seducing project. Prepare images to be used as the background for a concert in homage to Amalia Rodrigues. Living images flying among the lyrics in French and Dutch. Macromedia Flash has been used to prepare the animation, the synchronization is performed live, to get the finest tune with the variations in the melody.

The concert was performed in the theater "Espace Senghor" (Brussels-Belgium) on June 6th and 7th 2002. Due to the great success, another two presentations in the same space have been performed on September 20th and 21st 2002. On the 19th October 2003 the Brussels grand-finale at the magnificent Espace Flagey, and to close the tournée, at De Werf concert hall, on the 21st May 2004.
