Cape Verde Series: Legendary musician Cesaria Evora

Cesaria Evora is perhaps the Cape Verde's most famous export. The singer shot to international stardom in the nineties. The Grammy-winning barefoot diva put Cape Verde firmly on the map, with her 'morna' ballads - songs of loss and longing unique to the islands. She died in her home town of Mindelo, Sao Vicente Island in 2011, but her legacy remains as potent as her music on the archipelago. CGTN's Lindy Mtongana tells us more.

Maravillosa. Merece todo homenaje. Recordarla y volver a escuchar su voz llena de magia y que nos conduce con su voz a ese mundo maravilloso que vive en cada uno de nosotros. Desde Bolivia mi homenaje a está gran dama de la canción portuguesa.

Elle mérite , j’ai eu la chance de la voir en concert à Genève en 1998 . C’est grâce à elle que j’ai envie d’aller à Cap-Vert. Je m’estime chanceuse de l’avoir connue.
En 2011 elle avait un Concert programmé à Lausanne. J’avais déjà prévu pour aller, malheureusement elle nous a quitté. Cesaría vie en ❤
