Ramana Vieira Fado ensemble

Portuguese romantic folk singer Ramana Vieira and her ensemble will perform at the Willits Community Theatre on Sunday, September 10 at 2pm.

Music aficionados will have the rare opportunity to be immersed in the rapturous rhythms and stirrings of “Fado”, the classic folk music of Portugal. The traditional “Fados” are dramatic expressions of love, loss and redemption. Vieira also infuses her vocal performance with original compositions of American blues, pop and jazz classics. The ensemble includes Brad Bivens on guitar, Ela Polak on violin, and Steve Fowler on bass. Vieira’s diverse musicality and colorful heritage offers her audience a rare opportunity to enjoy traditional Portuguese and American classics–for a global good time.
