The Fado, light and shade

De Frédéric Touchard et Yves Billon

Synopsis

For two centuries, the FADO has sung the soul of the portuguese. The Fado is a song which takes position of the listener. To go to towards it - through its history, its traditions, and its protagonist - is to discover the greatest manifestation of the soul of the people of Portugal. To take time to listen to it in a "Tasca" - a little restaurant, in Lisbonne - is to feel an emotion which can be perceived far beyond the banks of the Tage.
