Carminho, the young voice of Fado, will perform in the Polytechnic Institute of Beja the 15th. April. Within the programme of the Cultural Encounters 2010: Portugal – Hungary, the concert will be a great opportunity to get to know the young talent of Portuguese Fado.
Carminho is only 25 years old and it seems like she was born with Fado in her soul. Her first album was released in 2009 and she was immediately pointed out as a great hope and talent of the Portuguese music.
Since then, she’s been travelling all over the country and visits Beja in April for a memorable concert in the Auditorium of the Polytechnic Institute. You can´t miss it!
