The duo "Preto no Branco", consisting of Cristina Aleixo and Nuno Félix, held a four-hand piano concert in the atrium of the Hospital Professor Doutor Fernando Fonseca (HFF) in Amadora on October 13.

The initiative, which marked World Music Day, featured a repertoire including works by Brazilian and European composers, offering a distinct cultural moment within the hospital environment. The performance provided a moment of relaxation and helped make the experience more welcoming for patients, companions, and staff.
The event also included the presence of the Urban Sketchers, a group of artists who captured the moment through drawings, documenting the music and the atmosphere in the Hospital's atrium.
As part of the Humaniz’Arte project, music reached a circulation area of the Hospital. This project, by the HFF Humanization Group, aims to alleviate difficult moments experienced at the Hospital through artistic and cultural initiatives, such as musicians performing in wards and other forms of artistic expression, promoting the well-being of the hospital community.
The duo "Preto no Branco" has previously performed recitals in venues such as Palácio da Independência, Jardim Botânico, Centro Cultural de Cascais, and Museu Nacional da Música.
