Sofia Borges & Ada Rave - The Unseen Pact

The Unseen Pact marks the first recorded encounter between percussionist Sofia Borges and saxophonist Ada Rave—a meeting shaped by fierce yet lyrical energy, and a shared commitment to spontaneous storytelling through sound. Borges and Rave move like co-conspirators in a ritual of fire and ether, navigating the space between control and surrender. 

Rave masterfully weaves narratives that evoke characters and shifting personalities—stories that unfold as she plays. Borges, in turn, bends time and texture, shaping the pacing with unexpected plot twists that disrupt and deepen the unfolding arc. The pact they’ve made remains elusive—its terms unspoken—but its presence is unmistakable, felt in every turn, silence, and moment of uncanny unity.
