“Amália Rodrigues is in my DNA, but so is Kate Bush, and I started out in a new-wave band,” Ms. Vieira said before a recent performance in New York. “My purpose is to open up the fado and keep exploring it. My group doesn’t have a traditional fado configuration, so we’ve had to evolve.” March 27, the New York Times writerLarry Rohter published a feature article in the Arts and Leisure section on the international boom of Fado music. It was titled, "Carving a Bold Destiny for Fado."
