The words game with "pontos" (or "contrapontos") of "departure", "escape" and "meeting" suggests the intersection of repertoires as distinct as Johann Sebastian Bach's instrumental music or the sacred music produced in the early decades of the Patriarchal Chapel Of Lisbon with the musical production of realities as distant as the Jesuit Masses in South America in the same period.
