Fado

Are you someone who sings and plays Portuguese Fado music? A feature film shooting in Massachusetts this summer is looking for you. Here's how to get the job.

Fado week at the Z concludes with Camane & Carminho, a powerhouse of Fado music stardom that will shake the foundation of the Zeiterion Performing Arts Center on Saturday, March 7 at 8 p.m.

Fado music is the heart of the Portuguese soul. It's one of the oldest urban folk music genres in the world. What the blues is to the Mississippi Delta, Fado is to an emotional, indefinable yearning for love and for times past.
