Collection: Fado

Fado, a soulful and emotive genre deeply rooted in Portuguese culture, is characterized by its melancholic melodies and poetic lyrics that often express themes of longing, loss, and nostalgia. This traditional music style has evolved over time, incorporating various sub-genres that showcase its versatility and enduring appeal. Portuguese Pop infuses modern elements into the classic Fado sound, creating a more accessible and contemporary interpretation. The Guitarra Portuguesa, a distinctive 12-string instrument, plays a central role in Fado performances, lending its unique timbre to the genre's signature sound. Fado de Coimbra, originating from the university city of Coimbra, is typically performed by male singers and features a slightly different musical style compared to its Lisbon counterpart. Musica Acoriana, hailing from the Azores archipelago, blends Fado influences with local folk traditions, further enriching the genre's diverse tapestry.
