Here, amid a labyrinth of narrow, cobbled streets, white houses and sunny courtyards, the true spirit of the city lives on, and fado can be heard in the evenings. This was more than just a cute postcard for Joana Amendoeira \u2013 it was a part of her musical biography.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last three decades, she has sung at Lisbon\u2019s most renowned houses of fado: Clube de Fado, Sr. Vinho, Mesa de Frades, and in recent years she has directed the musical programme at Fama d&#8217;Alfama.<\/p>\n<p>Debuting on stage at Grande Noite do Fado when she was barely eleven, today Joana appears in concerts all over the world. Her exceptionality goes beyond the beauty of her voice, there\u2019s also her ability to sing in way that, without knowing the slightest word in Portuguese, you will still understand everything at her concert.<\/p>\n<p>Joana\u2019s songs combine love, loss, the ocean, human destiny, meetings and separation. Every word, every pause, even the intensity of silence carry deep meaning. They give rise to that special feeling the Portuguese call saudade.<\/p>\n<p>Even after the concert, it might still be difficult to explain exactly what saudade is<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":236926,"template":"","categories":[81,4,12],"tags":[],"ticket-vendor":[],"class_list":["post-236925","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-festivaliai-2","category-koncertai","category-nemokami-renginiai"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.3 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"JOANA AMENDOEIRA (vocals, Portugal) PEDRO AMENDOEIRA (Portuguese guitar, Portugal) JO\u00c3O FILIPE (fado guitar, Portugal) The magic of fado with Portugal\u2019s gem \u2013 Joana Amendoeira.
