Port'Inglês

Description

« Port'Inglês » (English port) is a musical tale of the islands. The untold stories of the British presence in Cape Verde and the struggle for decolonization are sung in Carmen Souza's unique style. In this new music, jazz speaks a language of freedom that is meaningful for all cultures and blends perfectly with traditional music and rhythms such as Funana, Contradança, Morna or Mazurka - reflecting the multi-layered hybridity of Cape Verde itself. Port'Inglês was recorded in the year Portugal celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution, the military coup that overthrew the authoritarian Estado Novo government on April 25, 1974.
