Ana Moura possesses a sound unlike any other in fado, and we are thrilled to welcome her back to The Z! Her voice strolls freely through the Portuguese tradition, flirting elegantly with pop and broadening the soul-bearing genre to stunning results. Her stage presence captured the attention of Caetano Veloso, Mick Jagger, and Prince, which resulted in inspired crossover collaborations and performances with these musical giants in rock, pop, and jazz. Join us for a beautiful evening of fado, from an exquisite vocalist who embodies the spirit of the iconic fadista.

“Ms. Moura’s fado never forgets about the music’s past, but it lives in the moment.”
