FadoFado Born in the streets of old Lisbon in the early 19th
century, and today the tradition is very much alive.
In bars, where the music is always present, you can listen to strong-voiced singers and skilled guitarists.
OriginsOrigins There are many theories of fado’s origins,
including links with Portugal’s maritime history. However, many argue that fado contains influences from Portugal’s African and South American colonial empire, with traces of traditional dance music such as the fofa and lundum, and also a strong hint of Portugal’s poetic and literary legacy.
Fado exists as a way of expressing all concerns and the way of spirit of the population.

Each region of Portugal has its own style of dance and songs with the most traditional tunes played.
Some of the best examples of the regional dances are:
vira, malhão, chula, corridinho, tirana and fandango, where couples perform a lively dance usually to a fast beat of hand-clapping, guitars and accordions.

Music has also had an important
role in Portuguese politics. After
about 60 years living under the
burden of a dictatorship, there
was a revolution in Portugal –
the “ Carnation Revolution”- on
the 25th April 1974.
