Joao Farinha: Ao Vivo CD

"Ao Vivo" by Joao Farinha is a work where the musician from Coimbra recreates and renews some of the great classics of Fado from Coimbra, those who have a major place in the Portuguese musical culture. Captured in concerts in 2020 and 2021 in the large auditorium of the Convent of St. Francis in Coimbra, these recreations with modern sound, renewed words and all wrapped in an aesthetic concept that goes back to the origins of this musical style, seeks to transport it and bring it closer to other audiences. The fusion with several instruments (such as electric guitar, percussion, etc...) and sounds other than the traditional ones, are the motto of this concert, where the unlimited passion for Fado de Coimbra is assumed and the singularity of evoking its roots, taking them further and making them germinate in a new and challenging time.
