A house full of fans, an almost mind-blowing rhythm, a marriage proposal, a small big fan who took the stage, the company of the son with whom he sang and received two platinum discs, an excellent footballer, who was present at the concert, and on stage, this was a concert full of surprises, emotions, full hearts, and of course, excellent music.
Nininho Vaz Maia said at the concert that he was making a dream come true, in fact, not everyone sells out concerts at Arena de Almeirim, Parque de Feiras e Exposições de Beja and now the Coliseu de Lisboa, this is due to a lot of musical and professional quality and great empathy with the public.
The singer who unites Flamenco, pop, and gypsy tradition in a unique style, conquers fans since 2019 with his original songs on YouTube, adding to today more than 54 million organic views on his official channel, and the public present at the coliseum proves this, there were many moments in which the public accompanied or even sang alone in unison the various themes of the singer, which they knew at the first chord.
‘Raízes‘ is Nininho Vaz Maia’s debut album and features 11 tracks in a true tribute to his roots, the gypsy community, which Nininho says is “proudly gypsy“, and that with its unique style gives new life to a style that has barely changed.
But the concert had several surprises, the first was a proposal of marriage, Marco Costa, ex-competitor of “Big Brother Famosos 2” asked his girlfriend Carolina Pinto, in marriage during the concert of Nininho Vaz Maia, making a surprise to Carolina who entered her eyes closed, both fans of Nininho, had great applause from the thousands who attended the request, and of course, a song dedicated by the singer.
But more exciting moments were lived on stage, a small fan did not hide his emotion throughout the concert but when Nininho went to get him on stage and sang one of his songs with him, the whirlwind of emotions of this young man was enormous, but also his son Cristiano, who with the singer, received the 2 platinum discs they won with the single ‘Gosto de ti‘, which they sang to an audience surrendered to the emotions of a unique concert.
Almost at the end, it was Quaresma’s turn to take the stage, one of the heroes of the Portuguese soccer team, who gave us so much joy, and I confess Nininho’s admirer.
Coliseu Porto Ageas on the 28th will be Nininho Vaz Maia’s next stop and another excellent concert is expected.
