Carminho enchanted Castelo de São Jorge at the Lisbon Festivities

In a free concert as part of the Lisbon Festivities, Carminho gave voice to fado at São Jorge Castle, with a privileged view over the city, in an atmosphere that united music, landscape and heritage.


This was the last of three concerts held in one of the capital's landmarks, as part of a program that stretches throughout the month, from popular festivals to Santo António weddings.

During the concert, Carminho had the special participation of Camané and Dino d'Santiago, who joined her on stage for unique moments of musical sharing.

"I sang at the top of the city of Lisbon, at the São Jorge Castle, surrounded by friends and an incredible audience that filled that audience over the river like never before," she said.

The artist was also accompanied by André Dias on Portuguese guitar, Flávio Cardoso on fado guitar, Pedro Geraldes on lap steel guitar and electric guitar, Tiago Maia on acoustic bass and João Pimenta Gomes on mellotron.

The Lisbon Festivities, which kicked off on May 30, run until the end of June, with dozens of initiatives throughout the city.
