PanARMENIAN.Net - World famous Cesaria Evora will give a concert in
Yerevan on September 29. The singer has visited Armenia once to perform
at a closed event. This time, all fans will have an opportunity to
enjoy live performance of the barefoot diva.
Cesaria Evora, born August 27, 1941 in the port town of Mindelo on
the Cape Verde island of Sao Vicente, is a notable folk singer. She
is known as the "barefoot diva" because of her propensity to appear
on stage without shoes in support of the homeless and poor women and
children of her country.
Long known as the queen of the morna, a soulful genre (related with the
Portuguese fado) sung in Creole-Portuguese, she mixes her sentimental
folk tunes filled with longing and sadness with the acoustic sounds
of guitar, cavaquinho, violin, accordion, and clarinet.
