EMANUEL PESSANHA & ROOD ADEO: The last Retrato concert!
A must for lovers of the Portuguese heartache and joie de vivre! When evening falls, the night is still long. For real passion, the morning light will wait a little longer. This evening, the timbre of singer Emanuel Pessanha, the toucher of pianist Rood Adeo and the finesse of double bass player Luciën Matheeuwsen all  play a sophisticated game with our sense of time and sentiments.
Recorded in an intimate live setting - the atmosphere relaxed, the instruments surrounded by Portuguese tinto e branco - the 2000-album Retrato by Emanuel Pessanha and Rood Adeo is a proven classic. Both on the album and live, Retrato not only delivers a warm and lustful ode to the fado; it also pictures a timeless portrait of a friendship between musicians who know how to celebrate life the right way.
