Leva-Me Aos Fados by Ana Moura

Ana Moura’s powerful, beautiful & soulful singing of Fado,
traditional Portugese songs.Fado means fate & this is Portugal’s equivalent of blues music. And a stroke of fate drew this pop singer into Fado.

In this album Moura does a stunning job with her voice & music in reinterpreting this ancient Portugese musical tradition. This is Moura’s 4th album.

Try any of the songs in this track, you shan’t be disappointed.

2. Quick tempo.Full of vim & vigor.
3. Slow & soulful.
