Portuguese Week

There is a Portuguese Week in Budapest. We have a week in a cinema where we can watch Portuguese movies - including a documentary about Carlos Paredes !!! - as well as Portuguese week in a hypermarket where you can buy Portuguese foods and drinks.

... So, I played in the hypermarket last Tuesday 15 km from Budapest "just very close to the ham" - that was the wish of organisers ... :)

What did I play? I played Carlos Paredes of course!!!



... I am open-minded so I play everywhere they are asking me for...

Adeus Lisboa!

My last concert in Lisbon in Portugal was in Centro Cultural da Malaposta. I played lots of pieces as well. My favorite Portuguese piece is Verdes Anos composed Carlos Paredes.

We moved back from Lisbon to Budapest. It was a great and nice year in Portugal. Lisbon is my second home.

Verdes Anos - Carlos Paredes

I played in Coimbra in the city where Carlos Paredes the legend of Portuguese guitar was born. He was THE GENIUS of Portuguese guitar and Fado style. I played in a café Arte e Parte 200 meters from the house where Carlos Paredes was born.

It was my best interpretation of Verdes Anos. I played a lot on stage but it went best yesterday.
