ANA MARGARIDA
19 January . 9 pm . Pequeno Auditório
Born in Oliveira de Azeméis, Ana Margarida was rocked to the sound of Fado by her Mother’s arms. She studied classical music from 6 to 18 years old and during her academic career she did musical theatre. But Fado was and is her first and great love. The happiest memories of her childhood are singing hours and hours with her mother and sister Fados by Teresa Tarouca, Teresa Silva Carvalho, Maria da Fé and Amália.
Her professional career began in Porto where, in 2008, she received the Revelation Award at the Fados Gala at Teatro Sá da Bandeira. After her move to Lisbon, she sings in some of the most emblematic Casas de Fado in the city: Sr. Wine, Adega Machado, A Severa, Fado à Carmo and Maria da Mouraria.
In 2011 she took her Fado for the first time across borders, to Switzerland. Since then she has performed several times in Spain, France, Switzerland, Holland, Germany, Russia, Romania, Luxembourg and recently in Morocco, Poland, Belgium and Namibia.
She was invited to join musical projects such as +351 – Os Fados by João Gil and João Monge, Bela Ensemble and Rio Lisboa. In 2022 she started an artistic residency at Fábrica do Braço de Prata based on the challenge of Fado being accompanied by different sounds and formations.
In this concert Ana Margarida presents her journey, her influences, fados, her most striking poems and what made her one of the most breathtaking performers of her generation. She will be accompanied by Ricardo Parreira on Portuguese guitar, Bernardo Saldanha on fado viola and Francisco Gaspar on bass guitar. Ana Margarida’s debut album will be released in 2023 by Museu do Fado.
