Enquadrado no projeto Lei@rte, David Keenan, jovem cantor, escritor e músico
Irlandês, deslocou-se à nossa escola na sexta-feira, dia 25 de janeiro,
proporcionando um momento único de intercâmbio cultural e musical com os alunos
de inglês do ensino secundário. A conversa informal e intimista fluiu
naturalmente entre alunos e artista, dando lugar a conversas descontraídas e também de reflexão sobre a vida. Os poemas cantados por David permitiram aos alunos conhecer as suas histórias ao som da sua voz espantosa e da sua guitarra, tornando este momento ainda mais empático e interessante.
Aqui ficam algumas reflexões
por parte dos alunos sobre este encontro:
“Last Friday we went to see a concert with David Keenan where he played
5 songs and spoke with us (answering questions and talking about his career,
childhood, etc). In my opinion, David is such an amazing artist because he has
a lot of talent to sing, to play the guitar and to write the lyrics, and that
is hard to find. I also found him very funny in the way he told the stories of
his life. But the thing I appreciated the most was the way he was so intimate
with all of us, in spite of being so many in the room.”

“It was a great experience, one of the best I’ve ever had at school! I
loved the way he sings, the way he speaks about life and why he wrote the
songs, what inspires him to do it. He seems an incredible person and no doubts,
that he is an incredible singer. I hope that he becomes famous. I would like to
have more activities like this.”
Maria Matos, 11ºB
“The mini gig that we saw on the 25th January was a really
interesting experience. We were able not only to improve our English listening
experience, but also to be entertained. David Keenan had a really nice
personality and a good sense of humour; he is also truly talented, he can not
only sing but also play the guitar and write song lyrics”.
Maria Romano, 11ºD
“Last Friday we went to see a
singer, David Keenan. At first I was thinking that it would be boring, but when
he started singing his voice called our attention and made us feel very good
and emotional! His songs were touching and beautiful, I loved this experience!”
Paula Coelho, 11ºD
“Last Friday 25th
January David Keenan came to our school to throw a mini gig, he sang some of
his songs. I really enjoyed it! I couldn’t understand some words on the songs
because of the Irish accent but I really liked the rhythm and the type of
music. It was a good experience.”
Iago Gomes,
11ºB
“Last Friday I had the chance to meet the singer, composer and
songwriter called David Keenan. For me this was an incredible and unique
experience, a once in a lifetime opportunity even, to be able to talk and
listen to an artist who uses music to express his own ideas. I especially liked
the way he explained the stories and the past behind the lyrics of the songs he
himself wrote. It made the music a lot more meaningful and captivating, both
for the singer and the listener. Of course that I have to mention how much I
enjoyed his live performance: it was the first time I had ever heard a singer
performing live and I loved it! Lastly, I truly hope he becomes more known
worldwide so he can share his stories, music and ideals with other people. Our
school should definitely organize more activities like this one in the future
too.”
Beatriz Almeida, 11ºB
“I couldn’t go to the session on Friday but I went to see David Keenan
on Saturday 26th. The concert was extraordinary! His voice is very
emotional and by that I mean you really feel his songs! He knows how to
captivate the audience and how to create a connection between the singer and
the crowd. David’s shows are definitely an experience to repeat.”
Joana Gomes, 11ºC
“The singer who came to visit our school had a
captivating energy and left us all entertained. His voice was different and
unique, he also had a good sense of humour. Overall, I had a great time and
liked him very much”.
Verónica Medeiros, 11ºB
“David Keenan came to
our school to talk about his career and answer a few questions. But not just
that, he also played some of his amazing songs, and to be honest, he sounds
even better live than on youtube. He is awesome!”
Pedro Lúcio, 11ºD
“Last week (25th January) David Keenan gave
us an amazing moment of music with good songs and a strange accent that I had
never heard before. I liked it very much this mini gig of good vibes despite
the fact that I didn’t know what he was saying. His accent is very different!”
