About the Performance

Ana Moura is one of the most acclaimed fado singers of our time – an artist who, with her great presence and expressive voice, has renewed Portuguese fado and made the genre beloved far beyond the country’s borders.

Born in the historic town of Santarém in central Portugal and raised in both Portuguese and Angolan musical traditions, Moura has created an expression where the melancholy and longing of classical fado meets the influences of jazz, soul and world music. With albums like her latest ‘Casa Guilhermina’ (2022) and ‘Moura’ (2016), Moura has become an innovator who has never lost touch with the strong tradition and wistful longing of the fado.

Ana Moura has captivated audiences around the world, sharing the stage with artists such as Mick Jagger and Prince. On stage, she creates an atmosphere where Lisbon’s old fado house has its windows open to new musical continents. The result is a concert experience filled with passion, elegance and strong presence – where every song feels both timeless and deeply personal.

An evening of passion, presence and musical beauty awaits at Uppsala Konsert & Kongress.
