"Fado" is a compilation of traditional Lisbon Fados. The word "fado" means destiny, fate, the very Portuguese feeling of "saudade", or nostalgia. Accompanied by a Portuguese guitar and a classical guitar, Fátima Santos offers a new approach to this traditional form of song from Lisbon, while performing the original composition "Fado da Noite do Fado", where the arranger, José Luis Iglésias, brings a jazzy sonority to the languid sounds of the Portuguese guitar. Fátima Santos is a Portuguese singer residing in New Jersey, USA. Her discography includes: "Nostalgia", "Coimbra Fado", "Coimbra", and "Fado", all available at www.cdbaby.com.
