Sara Correia

On 19 September 2026, the Folies Bergère in Paris welcomes Sara Correia. Born in Lisbon and discovered at a young age during the Grande Noite do Fado, she belongs to the tradition of Lisbon fado while opening windows onto more contemporary expressions of Portuguese song. On stage, her repertoire relies on stripped-down acoustic arrangements, the Portuguese guitar rendered in clear, uncluttered lines, and a direct delivery that places the lyrics front and center.

Her set weaves a natural link between heritage and modernity, reflecting her albums Sara Correia (2018), Do Coração (2020) and Liberdade (2023). With clear diction, restrained intensity and a precise relationship to saudade, her way of singing remains rooted in the musical language of fado without weighing it down or diverting it. Trained in the fado houses and seasoned on international stages devoted to vocal music, she brings to Paris a program where repertoire classics and newer pieces respond to one another, always with the constant attention to words and breath that characterizes her approach.
