Lura in concert


Lura: voice and movement as one, the music of Cape Verde in sensual, vibrant, expressive form. Sweet, melancholic melodies that send the soul soaring out over the African waves. Erotic, untamed rhythms borne of the primeval African earth.


Songs that, singing of today’s Africa and of a brighter future slow in coming, are laden, too, with traditions and customs. Lura, a Lisbon-born daughter of the Cape Verdean diaspora, is the most contemporary and – after Cesária Évora – the best-loved voice of her homeland.
