Aldina Duarte

10 April 2005

I already knew the name Aldina Duarte for quite some time, because she is sometimes mentioned in connexion with Camané. I knew she too was a fadista, but I never heard her sing. Last Friday night, April 8th, 2005, on Rádio Alfa I heard her sing the song "Ai meu amor se bastasse". I loved it, and went looking where it could come from. I found out that Aldina Duarte, after some 12 years of singing and writing lyrics, made her cd debut Apenas o amor only in 2004.

After some more searching I found the site of the Portuguese radio station TSF, which features Carlos Vaz Marques interviewing Aldina Duarte, in three parts: 1, 2 and 3.
