“The Queen of Fado”, as Mariza Nunes is sometimes known, is currently the most universal Portuguese artist and has performed on some of the world’s most important stages, including Carnegie Hall in New York, the Royal Albert Hall in London, the Sydney Opera House, and the Olympia in Paris. The public's recognition of her artistic greatness is reflected in more than thirty platinum records and countless national and international awards.

Born in Mozambique and raised in Lisbon, her repertoire, mainly consisting of classical and contemporary fado, includes numerous influences that enrich fado and give the genre greater global projection.
