CUSTÓDIO CASTELO is the world's leading player of the Portuguese fado guitar, the instrument that helped make fado music Portugal's Intangible Cultural Heritage (UNESCO).Like Carlos Paredes, Custódio Castelo creates groundbreaking new sounds that have promoted the Portuguese Guitar to a concert instrument that can be played solo or as accompaniment. His unique Portuguese guitar, handmade from an oak root by master Oscar Cardoso, is capable of fine nuances of emotion, and he uses them well, especially for melancholy, but also for a sense of jubilation. This release is a selection of Portugal's most famous fados, arranged for and performed on Portuguese guitar by Custódio Castelo, lovingly selected by the master himself.
