Jorge Fernando celebrates 50 years of career at Tivoli
After celebrating a quarter of a century of artistic career at the Teatro Tivoli BBVA, the guitarist and composer from Amália returns to this stage to celebrate the ‘golden anniversary’ of a unique career.
Jorge Fernando returns to the big stage to celebrate his 50-year career with the public. The commemorative concert is scheduled for March 21st, at the Tivoli BBVA Theater, and will feature special guests.
In a concert entitled “Tantos Fados Deu-me A Vida”, in which he recovers the homonymous theme that he composed for Fernando Maurício, Jorge Fernando will present the soul of fado and the themes that mark his career of five decades of lyrics, music and fado.
Cidália Moreira, José Cid, Rodrigo and Tozé Brito will also take to the stage at the Teatro Tivoli BBVA for this concert that celebrates the 50-year career of one of the greatest contemporary fado singers, as well as the 40 years of “Umbadá”.
From a young football player to a renowned name in Portuguese culture, Jorge Fernando was one of the 50 figures of fado and Portuguese guitar honoured on the 1st anniversary of Fado as the Intangible Heritage of Humanity. In addition to the laurels received, he also received the Municipal Medal of Merit from the city of Lisbon (2012) and the Degree of Commander of the Order of Infante D. Henrique (2016).
Jorge Fernando’s musicality connects with several generations of musicians, from Amália Rodrigues to Sam The Kid, as well as styles and sounds that have placed him, from the beginning, at the artistic forefront.
Themes such as “Umbadá”, presented at the RTP Song Festival in 1985, are part of the rich and eclectic artistic repertoire of the Portuguese fado singer and will echo at the Tivoli BBVA Theater, as well as the compositions “Boa Noite Solidão”, “Quem Vem ao Fado” or “White Roses For My Love”.
