Portuguese Fado Concert: Ramana Vieira | El Cerrito

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Ramana Vieira sings with such a wide range of emotions one cannot help but be mesmerized by images of old world Portugal that emerge from the depths of her soul. Her extraordinary gift of bringing this 15th century style into modern times is her unique trademark. Often referred to as the “New Voice of Portuguese World Music,” this powerful vocalist is making her mark as one of the premier contemporary Fado artists. Fado is a melancholy and often-mournful music similar to the American blues as it tells stories of heartache and disappointment.
