[@aaronteves7215]

Son of a portugese fisherman. This touches my heart and reminds me of my father who was so proud of Being Portugese. if you can see this , I love you Dad

[@rodolfo9876a]

My grandfather was born from Portugal, he's loves his country.

[@pashico7082]

This is in our hearts. If you hear this then you're in Portugal, no matter what borders are surrounding you!

[@doomybaya]

even im not from portuguese ascendence, my grandfather found a portuguese guitar like the one in the photo, in uruguay in the 50s and bought it. i re-discovered it this year in the back of a wardrobe. the guitar seems to be 80-100 years old. in the luthier right now, going to start learning to play it (already a guitar player). this music sounds so beautiful!

[@cephalonia71]

How can I learn too. I play guitar

[@itachillianen]

Did you manage to learn? The world needs more Portuguese Guitar sound. In a world of streamers and youtubers, we need someone to stream this sound .❤‍🩹

[@stivklif]

Need feedback

[@LordHugorion]

I just enjoy doscovering all these things in common as well as the differences. No matter, if it is Portuguese, spanish, greek, brazilian or others. We are very familiar... greetings with Love from a Greek.

J’adore le son de cet instrument découvert depuis pas longtemps merci de me réjouir le cœur.

[@baeticus1]

Por vezes, quando o músico é um mestre, se o céu pende baixo sobre o mar ou em noites de solidão, choramos ao ouvir isto.

[@martintroisclous7350]

I discovered this album ten years ago. I don't listen to it much but I come back to it each time I happen to live something emotionally intense in my life. I don't know why but it has a direct connection to my heart. So I would like to thank here the people who crafted this music, the people who recorded it, the people who played it and the person who uploaded it. I see some people in the comments are very eager to show how proud they are to be somehow connected with the country/culture in which it is born. I don't blame the feeling and I know it feels nice to remember childhood memories but those are not attached to a country or national pride, those are _your_ feelings and you should own them. I know it feels good to be connected to a culture or to a group of people but when you you listen to this music and cry over it, as I do, remember that the people you really belong to, is all of us who have been moved the way you have been moved by this music.

[@ahmetbilalozbek]

well its not "cultural history", they were colonizing your country. sorry :/

[@ericcousins3848]

bring back Ceylon

[@garnertempest4069]

@@ahmetbilalozbek I suppose much like the Ottomans didn't influence their subject states culturally? But yes, they did though. Cultural history is not always, rarely in fact a voluntary thing. All cultures influence others one way or the other. I refer again to the Ottomans, huge colonisers and influencers, none of the former Ottoman subjects states would deny that, so why would you deny Jason his pride in his shared culture?

[@garnertempest4069]

@@ahmetbilalozbek The Iberian peninsula was colonised by Moors who exerted a massive cultural influence over hundreds of years. We ignore that at our peril.

[@ellepensetouthaut6174]

Je m'appelle Anitta, et ce fado Portugais, me rappelle ma grand-mère si respectacle, dans les beaux habits qu'elle portait. C'etait une femme forte, qui ne courbait jamais le dos et qui savait toujours se relever. Elle n'avait besoin de personne et tout le monde la reconnaissait. Son aura suffisait, elle n'avait besoin de rien d'autre. Son charme naturel à lui seul éblouissait. Je me souviens encore de son beau visage et de ses tendres lèvres qui me disaient : Ne sois pas prête à tout et n'accepte de devenir n'importe qui pour la célébrité."

[@JillMurphyLong]

Brava! Listening to your incredible song as I write about a story that transcends time and place.

[@mattnicholson8679]

I really like the sound of this guitar. There's a lot of scope for composition with it. And the Preston machine heads are just awesome

[@britinokinawa]

The Portuguese guitar is a wonderful instrument. The Preston heads look good, but they are impractical. If the guitar falls on the tuning screws, they bend. They have caused me endless grief. The screw threads are neither metric nor inch. Living in Okinawa, I had to search out someone with a special lathe to make them.

[@fabioaguiar5936]

They are not meant to be practical, they are a symbol of character, we call them "carrilhões", because they resemble the bell sets at large cathedrals and monasteries, and have been part of these guitars for many years now. Having your guitar fall may cause more grief than just bending the screw heads, it may alter the sound of the guitar altogether. This guitar is like the best things in life, it needs to be taken care of and cherished. Best of luck to you with your guitar.

Soulful music resonates within....

[@lukefernandez7880]

Beautiful. Reminds me of classical Spanish guitar and Greek folk music.

[@johnshort5003]

As a player of Greek folk music I'd say this music is about as far away from it as it's possible to be. But we all have our own take on reality and it does remind me of Villa-Lobos, especially the Suite Populaire Brasilienne.

[@bernardopratta3076]

Greek music is more turkish and arabic alike, although might have soft latin influence. Portuguese music is iberian and pure latin, although it as some arabic influence. Very different types indeed

[@theatisgr]

@@bernardopratta3076 Greek music very different from Portuguese music? Listen to this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5_Rhqigha6LpbM

[@LordHugorion]

@@johnshort5003 As a greek iwould say i see the similarities. Why to put everything apart? Enjoy the similarities as well as the differences. This is what makes life beautiful in my eyes

[@LordHugorion]

@@bernardopratta3076 that strongly depends from region, genre and musician. Greek culture is a melting pot. Its sound is kind of european, undistinguishable "greek" and oriental at the same time. I see the similarities here, between portuguese and greek music as it could developed at the greek islands or the large harbour cities.

This song is older than Marlon Brando itself ahaha

[@Francisbastos100]

Mas um fadista não morre como morrem os outros homens. Ele trata a morte por tu. Conhece-lhe os jeitos e as manhas e só pode ter por ela o respeito que se tem por aquilo que conhecemos de gingeira: é gingão com ela, mas tem-lhe amor. Ou não fosse todo o Fado um fingimento da morte e todo o fadista um fingimento da vida.

I found out through dna tests that I’m 38% spanish 35% Native American (Central America) and 19% Portuguese 3% African...I have all three main races but I knew I’d have traces of black due to history and also Native American even Spanish but the Portuguese cought me by surprise. Not only do I have it but it’s 19% that’s a big chunk of who I am! Third largest if you consider Spain then American Indian or second largest european after spanish. I always thought Portugal was cool but to actually have Portuguese in me due to my great grandpa I love the idea and happy with my outcome. I always wanted to visit Spain and will but I must go to Portugal now as it really is the second biggest european in me! Portugal is beautiful and the people from what’s I’ve seen are exotic like spanish and beautiful. Whites but different from pale blue eyes blonde hair whites of Northern Europe or most in the USA. I mean I can see how I look Portuguese aside from Spanish when I googled Portuguese men. Maybe one day I’ll date a Portuguese or spanish woman 😊 I’m actually happier that my ancestry results said I’m Portuguese more than Italian or French or even Greek as much as I love Greek bcuz portugal is Iberian culture and very similar to Spain. The guitar the language people. So realistically I am culturally a lot closer to Portuguese than Greek or Italian...Hopefully j meet cool people in Portugal and Spain

[@garnertempest4069]

The Greeks influenced Portugal too, as did the Latins, Visigoths and Moors. If you have Portuguese or Spanish genes you may well have North African ones too.
