Fado is the soul of Lisbon made music. A melancholic music born in the eighteenth century, that ordinary people sang who lamented their misfortune and what has been lost, telling their experiences. Currently has the lyrics of the best poets, with the title of having been declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Its comparison with tango is inevitable, because both show the same passion and melancholy.

A soloist accompanied by a Portuguese guitar or acoustic guitar, he sings nostalgic lyrics that describe small stories of humble neighborhoods. The best places to listen to fado are in La Alfama, Mouraria and Barrio Alto. And there are still taverns where spontaneous performances are carried out following the inspiration of the moment. The new generation of fadists and instrumentalists have incorporated fusion sounds that add new nuances to traditional notes.
