Mariza

Mariza returns to Bordeaux for a concert at the Théâtre Femina on April 24, 2027. A leading figure of contemporary fado, the singer presents Amor, her new album created with composers, producers and musicians from different generations. Balancing respect for the codes of Lisbon fado with contemporary arrangements, she pursues an open approach to composition that keeps the genre’s essence at its core.

With Amor, Mariza explores the many faces of romantic feeling—its impulses, vulnerabilities and contradictions. Each song offers a different shade, ranging from intimate atmospheres to broader dynamics, while retaining the tension and melancholy inherent to fado.

On stage, these new pieces blend with songs that have defined her career. Born in Maputo and raised in Lisbon, Mariza has been part of the fado revival since the 2000s, supported by precise diction and a command of phrasing that suit both the Portuguese guitar and fuller orchestrations.

An evening to step into the world of Amor and revisit familiar highlights from her repertoire.
