O FADO: THE MUSICAL JOURNEY OF FADO AND JAZZ WITHOUT BORDERS

Portugal and Menorca. Fado and jazz. The meeting of LINA_, one of the most captivating voices in contemporary fado, and internationally acclaimed Menorcan pianist Marco Mezquida, gives rise to a unique musical project that blurs boundaries between genres and emotions.

Together they create a sonic universe where the soul of fado merges with the freedom of jazz and the sensitivity of contemporary music.

On stage, LINA_’s voice —a modern heir to the lyricism of Amália Rodrigues— blends boldness with emotional depth, while Mezquida brings luminous expressiveness, turning the piano into a natural extension of her voice. Their artistic chemistry breathes new life into fado with freshness and intensity.

In O Fado, LINA_ not only performs but also composes and reimagines fado classics such as “Fado da Defesa”, adding new layers of meaning. Together they explore a fluid, organic repertoire rich in nuance, honouring tradition and embracing artistic risk with equal passion.
