Lisbon is certainly one of the most sung cities in the world. Muse of great poets, both popular and learned, Lisbon inspires and breathes poetry through all its seven hills.

And it is on its highest hill, in the area of Castelo de São Jorge, where the first houses that gave rise to the city were built, and from where one has one of the best views of the Portuguese capital, which will take place a great tribute. Interestingly, for many, fado and Lisbon seem to be synonymous. And it is likely that no one better than a Lisbon fado singer knows how to sing the life that pulsates through its neighborhoods and alleys, through its alleys and sidewalks.
In this show “LISBOA”, an initiative of the Lisbon Chamber / EGEAC, Helder Moutinho proposes to the public an imaginary trip through the well-known neighborhoods of Lisbon: Alfama, Bairro Alto, Mouraria, Madragoa. Neighborhoods where Amor, A Saudade, Melancolia and Alegria and the struggle for permanent Freedom come together in a great tribute to the city. During this musical trip, Helder Moutinho will be accompanied by musicians Ricardo Parreira (Portuguese guitar), André Ramos (viola), Miguel Silva (guitar) and Ciro Bertini (bass guitar).
