Known for her exceptional ability to give voice to various authors and explore diverse musical influences throughout her extensive career, Cristina Branco has envisioned a deliberate return to the essence of Fado. The forthcoming album serves as both an homage to Fado’s rich traditions and a testament to its reinvention, as Branco fearlessly incorporates the creative contributions of a diverse array of lyrical perspectives.

Joining forces with accomplished musicians Bernardo Couto on Portuguese guitar, Luís Figueiredo on piano, and Bernardo Moreira on double bass, Cristina Branco expertly crafted and produced this extraordinary body of work.

Cristina Branco
