Every country has its own distinct musical style, and for the Portuguese, the most popular among their original music creations is the one that they call Fado.
Fado is a popular music genre in Portugal with roots dating back in the 1820s. Fado’s literal meaning is “fate” or “destiny”. The style used in Fado music is characterized by mournful melodies about the sea, hardships and love.
In 2007, the UNESCO listed Fado in their Intangible Heritage List.
