A PERFECT GIFT FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL

Love has always been one of the topics most covered in fado and the main source of inspiration for most of the poets, however it is the first time that a selection of fados is made exclusively on the topic where we can hear the love in the great voices of fado.

Fado Amor e Saudade (Fado Love & Longing) is a pioneer release on such a special theme that not only sings love but also the longing in the corners of an old Lisbon wrapped in stories, novels and poetry.

Who does not remember classics as Ay mourir pour toi (Oh dying for you) from Charles Aznavour sang by Amália? Or Nem às paredes confesso (Not even

to the walls I confess) here in the voice of Fernanda Peres, Amor é água que corre (Love is water flowing) from Alfredo Marceneiro, Sou tua (I’m yours) by

Maria da Fé, Lenda das algas (Legend of algae) from Celeste Rodrigues and Gostei de ti (I liked you) from Carlos Ramos? These and other classics can be heard in this work that brings together 20 fados some of which are now recovered for the first time to digital.

Fado Amor e Saudade is a work that celebrates love, the perfect soundtrack for those moments we share with someone that is very special to us. It can also be a perfect gift for special occasions in the spirit of the love letters written in the old times.
