Pedro Ayres Magalhães’ Madredeus  is onstage again  after
a six year sabbatical, celebrating the 25th anniversary of the start of their  brilliant career.

Tonight’s show marks the return to active duty of Portugal’s most  atmospheric and enduring musical export. Together
with the keyboards of long time member Carlos Maria Trindade, and the strings of Jorge Varrecoso, António Figueiredo and Luís Clode (two violins and cello, respectively), Pedro Ayres Magalhães reactivates the Madredeus project with the discovery of an amazing new voice: that of Beatriz Nunes. Tonight’s very special show presents highlights of  the group’s catalogue.
