“Tremembe Trilogy”
In a place called Almofala, which local people referred to as the end of the line” Emily encountered the Tremembe Indians who lived in the sand dunes set back from the sea. The Chief and his daughter decided to sing some of their traditional songs. Emily recorded them and three of the Tremembe songs form the base for her tracks “Rainmaker”, “Agua de Menina” and “Prayer for the Fishermen”. These tracks are an audible response to her experience with the Tremembe Indians and the isolated place in which they live.

“Prayer for the Fishermen”
“This is a prayer for the fishermen,
For those people out there,
At that place on the end of the line,
Where their world is just sea and sky.
Our boat is led through dark waters
Our tears are of the Sea”
