Carminho | „Portuguesa” Tour | Karlstorbahnhof Heidelberg

In the organizer's words:

Carminho is back on the stages of concert halls and festivals with a new album! Together with Mariza and Ana Moura, the Portuguese fadista is one of the most sought-after contemporary fado icons and is also celebrated as a role model by young artists such as ROSALIA because of her authenticity and success. This year she has already played acclaimed and sold-out concerts in renowned venues and concert halls, including the Konzerthaus Dortmund, the Philharmonie Berlin, the Jazzfest Basel and the Forum Ludwigsburg.

"Portuguesa" is Carminho's sixth album with 14 songs, many of whose lyrics and music were written by herself. In her search for an even deeper understanding of fado, she moves like a fish in water and explores many new possibilities and combinations of genre conventions. Fado is not so much a musical genre as a national heritage and cultural sanctuary of Portugal, and Carminho embodies it with body and soul like no other. She has internalized the melancholy tragedy, the deep longing and the emotional pain of fado and performs it with a full expressiveness and deeply felt passion that is second to none. As a composer, author and interpreter, Carminho has shaped the history of the genre with her own fado repertoire and continues to do so. The authentic and innovative fadista is a symbol of the modern Portuguese woman beyond Portugal's borders.

Her previous albums have all gone platinum, and "Time Out" magazine called her first album "the most impressive fado debut in decades". Collaborations with greats such as Caetano Veloso, Marisa Monte and the Jobim family have also contributed to the high demand for the fadista. Brilliant performances in major venues such as the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and the sold-out Konzerthaus Vienna, the Philharmonie Cologne or the Konzerthaus Dortmund also show that Carminho is an artist who absolutely must be experienced live on stage. Her incredible stage presence has been captivating audiences for years and has earned Carminho an ever-growing international fan base.
