Exclusive presentation of 'Ruas', a new Misia recital about streets: 'the streets of life, the heart, saudade, love and absence, the street of streets: that of fate and fado.'
Ruas is a concentrated combination of the recent LISBOARIUM programme that Misia started up in Paris and a new chapter about artistic tourists.
Cast: Misia, song (and stage presence!) accompanied by a Portuguese guitar, viola de fado, violin, piano, accordion... and there's even room for a synthesizer or an electric guitar!?
Just to repeat a little Misia information: a ravishing Portuguese songstress, a witty mistress with a precise voice, a well-considered charisma, well chosen musicians and a great feel for role play. Releasing 8 CDs since '91, Misia is still considered the first and foremost of the new fadistas (see too Mariza, Christina Branco, Malfada Arnauth...) The Independent already informed: '5/5... A reminder of what fado really is. It is not about sex, and it is not for dancing to: it is about the voice, pure and simple.'

'Peau d'albâtre, cheveux noirs, lèvres rouges... Misia est l'icône urbaine du fado, le blues du Portugal.'
