«Fado Portugués» is the photography book about fado by Luis Pavão, published by Edel Classics in hardcover, with 120 pages.
The volume portrays the Portuguese soul through fado, with images by Luis Pavão that evoke the songs of heartbreak, unrequited love and farewell born in the bars of Lisbon's port. The accompanying music serves as an introduction to these lamentations, and includes fados from Lisbon and instrumental guitarradas from Coimbra, with artists such as António Chainho, Paulo Bragança and Lenita Gentil.
Published in 2005, the book comes with four audio CDs.
For fans of fado, Portuguese music and documentary photography.
