Uxia has got a beautiful voice. ;-) I like her "muitissimo".
The poem is from Luis de Camoes, our greatest poet (seculo XVI).
She was singing in Galicia, from where she is from.
This show was dedicated to Jose Afonso, a very well known and cherished Portuguese singer from the last century.
One of his songs, "Grandola, Vila Morena", was the sign of the "Revolucao dos Cravos" in 1974.
Galaico and Portuguese are very similar languages. Galaico is also known as "Portuguese of Galizia".
Jose Afonso had got a special curiosity about Poetry "Galaico-Portuguesa" from the Middle Ages. He was very cherished in Galicia too.

Have a nice day, Patricia!!

Beijinhos ;-)

There was a moment I wanted to take pictures, but I was to pressed for time. What fun this is to see these Utrecht pictures!
Fijne dag vandaag, geniet van de herfst.
Groeten,
Jacoba

Autumn is beautiful, besides offering a lot of opportunities with the camera. I like the Wisdom words in the side bar Sandra. Good going..
