Music : Carminho

Saturday 18 May 2024 at 8.30 pm.

Carminho, a fado player who learned the art from her mother, blends traditional fado with jazz and Brazilian and Portuguese popular music.She was acclaimed in her own country as "the greatest fado revelation of the last ten years" as soon as her debut album, Fado, was released in 2009! The star is still shining as brightly as it ever has today.

Every performance by Carminho, whose real name is Carmo Rebello de Andrade, is a special occasion since the singer has managed to sell out venues with just six albums. Of course, in Portugal, but also in Brazil and everywhere else.

She is one of the most notable fadistas of her time because to her distinctive voice, which is rich with a sense of modulation, and her fusion of fado with other musical genres. When she gives traditional folk tunes her own colors and cadence, she is instantly recognizable.

On the song recorded by the Você-Você ensemble, artists like Caetano Veloso, a vocalist of Brazilian variety, are correct in adding their vocals to hers. This ballerina's child has continued to astound us by taking detours because, in her words, fado is not a prison; it doesn't take her away; it frees her.
