Although this post is a bit nerdy if you really feel the love for Portugal, and not just a touristic flirt, I’m pretty confident you’ll enjoy it too (how modest of me, I know!).
Today, being Labour Day, I’d like to highlight the work of Michel Giacometti, whose work was of vital importance in collecting and registering Portuguese traditions in terms of music, dance, and oral literature, which would have otherwise been lost – maybe forever. For obvious reasons, I’ll be focusing on his recordings of Portuguese work songs.
Make sure you don’t miss the last video and the old lady in it.
