There was a time when fado - the art of describing the indescribable, which some call the soul - was a privilege of the Portuguese and those that socialized with them.
However, Fado is, in essence and purpose, emotion and as we all know emotions are universal, reaching the heart of any human being wherever they may be. There is no border, or language barrier that can sustain this force. Today, finally, Fado belongs to the world.
Hence the purpose of fado.com. It is a sort of central station where the world can go and get all it needs or wants to know about artists, news, archives and new trends.
