The great voice of fado and one of the portuguese artists with the greatest international projection, Carminho, launches her new single "Balada do país que dói":
"Balada do país que dói" is constructed through the dialogue Carminho instigates between instruments from such diverse families as a Portuguese guitar, an electric guitar, and the Cristal Baschet, between her voice and other voices (which, in fact, is her voice made multiple). These dialogues span different time periods: the time periods of fado's history and tradition, its composers, lyricists, and performers, but also the time periods of the disciplines of music and poetry. On this journey, through which we are led by Carminho, we learn that the time of music is not a chronological time marked by calendars and hours of the day, but a temporality constructed by notes and sonic textures, born from the words written by Ana Hatherly and later spoken and sung by Carminho. To this is added the time of those who hear this Ballad, repeat it, hum it, and keep it in their memory. Balada is a fado constructed through the overlapping layers of time in dialogue with one another, connecting the past and the present, the ancient and the present, and initiating a dialectical process of dialogue. And it is this back-and-forth between different times, words, and heterogeneous sounds that marks not only this track but also runs subterranean throughout Carminho's new album."
