Povo que lavas no rio

The Pop influences that inspired Ennio Morricone's 'Spaghetti' Western sound! Fado is often called "Portuguese Blues", somewhere in the emotional landscape between African drums, Spanish and Arabian ballads, and Delta confessionals. It's undisputed queen was Amalia Rodrigues, who's depth of feeling did more to define the sound than anyone. This lovely classic is a precursor to how ennio used Edda Dell'Orso's soprano as an instrument of mood and feeling in his scores. Today Fado is championed by the great new artist, Mariza, and others.
