Love Fado
Beautiful show. Singers and musicians were very talented and committed to Fado art. It was a bit uncomfortable as the space had no air and become very warm inside

Very good
Very beautiful 1-hour concert. Only shame, no translation in French, only in English..but the music, the fado was a treat to listen to!
S
A lovely insight into Portuguese folk music
A lovely introduction to Portuguese folk music, this intimate 50-minute Fado performance was both moving and informative. Between the beautifully lyrical songs, the performers shared fascinating insights into the origins and traditions of Fado, explaining its history and introducing the instruments that accompany its deeply emotive melodies. As we listened, we enjoyed a glass of Madeiran wine, which added to the authentic atmosphere and enhanced the overall experience. The combination of heartfelt music, engaging storytelling, and the cosy setting made for a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable evening. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the soul of Portuguese culture.

An Excellent Performance
Excellent show! Set in a beautiful, cozy venue, we were treated to a delicious glass of Madeira wine and sat in the front row. The singing was fantastic by all performers. We were given explanations of how the genre came to be and the meanings of the songs. We had never been to a Fado performance before and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We learned about the history, savoured the music and are now fans! An excellent show!

Great evening with fado
It was very soulful and uplifting - Sofia was amazing and her translation helped to understand Fado music for a foreigner like me who doesn’t speak Portuguese
