Description:

Enjoying a large international following, fado emerged in the nineteenth century from a diverse blend of Portuguese folk styles and other traditions that had been imported from former Portuguese colonies. With its two distinct regional traditions – in Lisbon and Coimbra – fado is essentially an urban phenomenon. The Rough Guide To Fado showcases some of the finest music from legendary artists, such as Amália Rodrigues and Artur Paredes, and modern singers, such as Cristina Branco and João Pedro, who are exploring and developing this elegant and passionate style.
