After Bogotá, Lima, Santiago de Chile, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Porto, Lisbon, Paris, Bordeaux, Zurich, Ljubljana, Hamburg, among many other cities, Cristina Branco is now presenting her beautiful concert "Mãe" – her latest album – in Holland and Belgium.
With 18 albums released and countless concerts worldwide, Cristina Branco is a true ambassador of Portuguese culture. Traditional music is her main aesthetic root, but the influence of jazz, literature, and the musicians she shares the stage with give her art a universal character and sublime charm. Her work is a significant contribution to the dissemination and defense of Portuguese music, language, and authors. In her albums, Cristina gives voice to different generations of authors such as António Lobo Antunes, Maria do Rosário Pedreira, José Afonso, José Mário Branco, Sérgio Godinho, Pedro da Silva Martins, Mário Laginha, among many others.
Her latest album, 'Mãe', released in September 2023, is a heartfelt tribute to Fado and is nominated for the PLAY - Portuguese Music Awards, in the Best Fado Album category. The album has been warmly received with sold-out audiences, on a remarkable national and international journey with dates in Bogotá, Lima, Santiago de Chile, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Ljubljana, Dortmund, Hamburg, Porto, Lagoa, Ílhavo, Lisbon, Braga, Paris, Bordeaux, Zurich, Spain, Panama, the Netherlands, and Belgium.
In 'Mãe' the singer is accompanied by musicians Bernardo Couto on Portuguese guitar, Luís Figueiredo on piano and Bernardo Moreira on double bass.
