Synopsis

“Mis Versos, Mi Voz revela la fuerza de un colectivo, de un número creciente de mujeres que dan voz al fado no solo como intérpretes, sino también como autoras de sus poemas. A Amália Rodrigues, autora de versos célebres y precursora de la poesía de mujeres en el fado, se suman cinco extraordinarias artistas de generaciones posteriores: Aldina Duarte, Mafalda Arnauth, Cuca Roseta, Carminho y Teresinha Landeiro.

Los versos incluidos en esta antología no solo nos acercan a las voces escritas de estas fadistas mujeres, a sus experiencias, emociones y reflexiones, como también desafían el poder del patriarcado, que ha dominado, desde sus inicios, la creación literaria y musical del fado.

Las transformaciones sociales y culturales en el Portugal de las últimas décadas se proyectan hoy en la más expresiva y tradicional categoría musical de este país. Y así se renueva el fado por la voz de las mujeres que lo escriben y que le abren nuevos caminos rumbo al futuro.”
