Event Details

Mariza, the undisputed queen of fado, returns with a sensational new album just called Mariza. Born in Africa, brought up in Lisbon, she draws on an awareness of other musics from the blues to tango, while loving the fado tradition.

Born in Mozambique to a Portuguese father and Mozambican mother, she was brought up in Mouraria, one of the traditional fado neighbourhoods of Lisbon. While loving the pure tradition, Mariza has commissioned new fados and expanded the form in her collaborations with Spanish and Brazilian musicians.A charismatic performer on stage and an eloquent ambassador for this much-loved Portuguese style: if you’re going to see fado, see Mariza.
