À propos de Folk / Musica de Intervencao
Portugal's protest song tradition emerged in the 1960s under the Salazar dictatorship, blending folk melodies with politically charged lyrics. Jose Afonso's 'Grandola, Vila Morena' was broadcast as the signal to launch the Carnation Revolution on 25 April 1974, making this genre inseparable from Portuguese democracy itself.
