Founded in Lisbon, Madredeus is a music chart phenomenon in world music both in Europe and North America. Defining themselves as a ‘musical fantasy, with Portuguese roots? Madredeus are a true musical workshop. Their tools of the trade are the voice, the classical guitar and the synthesizers. Madredeus have been constantly true to their commitment to music sung in Portuguese. And perhaps, you may encounter Madredues in a movie “Lisbon Story” by the German director Wim Wenders. The soundtrack album “Ainda”demonstrates many impressive crafted pieces.

With the dexterity of Teresa Salgueiro’s sweet and portent voice, imbuing with vocal poetry the melancholic lyrics portraying what the Portuguese uniquely call “saudade” which designates a sorrowful but hopeful longing for past moments or something left behind. In the music of Madredeus, “saudade” becomes a universal word. The new tour of Madredeus starting from 2004 delights us again especially with their music and poetry inspired in Lisbon and in the Portuguese soul. They devoted themselves to their live presentation over 800 concerts around the world including countries from Europe to Japan.

Madredeus live performance accents the beauty of “musical poetry” Audiences are fascinated by their tranquil music atmosphere and feel like being away from the urban hassle.
