Celebrating the centennial of the birth of the late Queen of Fado Amália Rodrigues as well as the 20th anniversary of her career, Mariz released her album “Mariza Sings Amália” recorded in Lisbon and Rio de Janeiro on January 29, 2021.

The Diva of Fado, Mariza was the recipient of no fewer than three Grammy nominations and three times in a row BBC Radio 3’s Best Artist in Europe award. The Mozambican singer grew up in Mouraria, Lisbon and continues to keep alive the memories and traditions of the Fado singers of the past and the places where she first learned the art.

Passionate, elegant, sensual and steamy… These 4 words are enough to describe Mariza’s contemporary interpretation of the Fado tradition, a tradition included in UNESCO’s ‘Cultural Heritage’ list. As she once said: ‘Fado is not just a music, it is a feeling. It’s not sad, it’s melancholic. I didn’t choose this music, it was my destiny.’
