Cultural Music Listening Session at Porto Historic City Center
In this experience you will be immersed in sound through the use of a vintage hi-fi equipment that has been carefully fine tuned to fit the space.
And this is no ordinary space. It is a piece of history of its own. A late 19th century bourgeois house - right at the heart of Porto's city centre - which keeps all its original charm and details.
It is in this amazing space that you will be welcomed and guided through Portuguese history and culture via the sounds that its inhabitants have produced.
Music is a great way to peer into the soul of a people, and this is exactly what we propose to do.
We are certain you will leave this experience with a heightened awareness regarding not only Portuguese music but sounds in general.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
A duo of seasoned deejays and curators with more than two decades of combined experience in the area of music and hi-fi sound, with partnerships with international venues and museums. In this listening experience, we will take you on a musical journey into the heart of Portuguese culture, using vinyl records played through an analog vintage sound system. From the traditional work songs recorded by Michel Giacometti, the poetic reveries of Zeca Afonso, to the contemporary sounds of Orelha Negra and João Barradas, a myriad of musical territories - not restricted to Fado - will be covered. This listening experience takes place in a late 19th-century building, carefully restored to keep all the original details and structure, adding to the immersive and authentic atmosphere. Join us in this special space for a journey through time, culture, and humankind.
