Background notes
Archive material and source history
Cristina Ribeiro is a Portuguese singer-songwriter who came up in the 1990s. Her debut album 'Alfazema' in 1993 gave her national recognition, with the title track becoming a hit. That song, along with others like 'Crise' and 'Meu Deus, Vem Ver,' showed her approach to fado and contemporary folk.
She was born in Viana do Castelo in 1965 and grew up listening to fado singers like Amália Rodrigues. Her vocal style has a raw emotional quality that connects with the tradition while feeling immediate. In the early 2000s, she worked with the fado singer Camanê on the album 'Duo,' which drew some criticism from traditionalists but found an audience.
Her other albums include 'Desfado' from 1995, 'Tabu' from 1999, and 'Novo' from 2010. She keeps the fado form but lets it breathe in her own way.
