Tender tongue

He begins with music, and as he walks, travels, and observes, Pedro Lenz transports us in a dance-like manner into understandable smiles or childlike wonder. The simplest things, whether at the playground, at work, in the pub, in the car, or on the train, gain poetic brilliance and philosophical depth in his observations. He speaks of birth and death, childhood and old age, love and betrayal, conflict and reconciliation, and time and again shows us: "something in between." Suspended between quiet sorrow and liberating cheerfulness, he allows us to grow fond of the world with his "tender tongue" and mischievous wit. Neither blind nor naive, but aware of our flaws and shortcomings, this singer takes us from eternity in the "first kiss" to the anticipated yet sudden death: "To go and to come / you should be able to let go / it's just that simple.".
