Mário Pacheco’s guitar playing is the result of dedication, hard work and a special love of music and fado in particular, rooted in a family tradition. His fado’s are performed by Carlos Zel, Paulo Bragança, Paulo de Carvalho, Joana Amendoeira and Mísia. On the new album and DVD “A Música e a Guitarra” the following special guests give their interpretation of his melodies: Mariza, Rodrigo Costa Félix, Ana Sofia Varela and Camané.

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.

Un événement unique à ne pas manquer.
Après son passage au New Morning en février, la troupe de Let's Get Together réunie par la chanteuse Lisa Spada, vous donne rendez-vous au Trabendo le Jeudi 28 Mai 2009.
A Antena 1 da RDP está obrigada, por lei, a passar 60% de música portuguesa. Mas qual é efectivamente a música portuguesa que se pode lá ouvir? E porquê (apenas) aquela e não outra? E como se explica que a maior parte da música anglo-americana que lá abunda seja tão medíocre? Conheça as razões aqui: http://nossaradio. blogspot. com/2008/11/playlist-da-antena-1-uma-vergonha. html
