    Literary Fall | Sung Short Stories

    On October 20, 2026, at 2:30 p.m., the event “Contos Cantados” will take place, featuring Carlos Marques/Trimagisto, at the headquarters of Sporting Futebol Clube Abelense, in Abela, as part of the “Literary Fall” initiative and the CLDS-5G project. “Sung Tales” is a staged concert that reflects more than 15 years of research by performer Carlos Marques as a storyteller. It is a project that collects tales and nursery rhymes from the older generation to pass on to the younger generation. The sung concert is available for performances in theaters, libraries, and educational institutions. In addition to the show, “Contos Cantados” is also an audiobook—recently awarded the National Illustration Prize—that brings together the music of Carlos Marques and the illustrations of André da Loba. Free admission for senior citizens (CLDs 5G) and the general public
