Lively Arts event: Dulce Pontes, Fado

With her lilting, ethereal voice belting out lyrics and wordless cries, chanteuse Dulce Pontes exudes undeniable emotions. Accompanied by electric and acoustic instruments, Pontes wraps the raw, heavyhearted passion of traditional Portuguese fado around cultural influences from Europe, Africa, and the Mediterranean—yielding a distinctive and contemporary vibe that can sound deliciously old or tantalizingly new.
