Jorge Fontes - Rabelos do Douro

Review by Rizqi Wardani

Jorge Fontes' album Rabelos do Douro is a beautiful tribute to the traditional boats of the Douro River in Portugal. The album is a mix of traditional and contemporary sounds, with Fontes' mastery of the Portuguese guitar shining through in every track.

The album takes the listener on a journey down the Douro River, with each track evoking the sights and sounds of the region. From the lively rhythms of "Cais do Douro" to the haunting melodies of "Foz do Tua", Fontes captures the essence of the Douro Valley in his music.

The album also features collaborations with other talented musicians, such as the beautiful vocals of Sara Vidal on "Vinho do Porto" and the percussion of João Gentil on "Rabelo".
