MISS PORTUGAL: Fado is a distinctly Portuguese genre of music characterized by the sweeping, melodious pathos expressed lyrically about Portugal’s rural poor and their connection to the sea. Even though the art dates back to the early 19th century, a beautiful and soulful woman named Mariza carries on the tradition with a flair and understanding all her own. She can simultaneously seduce and sadden, exalt and exile, all with the power of her amazing contralto voice. No matter the subject matter of a song, Mariza rivals any modern diva in stage presence and her uncanny ability to inspire the most powerful emotions in her listeners. Experience the power of her Portuguese blues at the Lobero Theatre this Friday, October 26, at 8 p.m. Visit lobero.com for ticket info.
