Aduf was initially conceived by drummer José Salgueiro in response to a commission from 1998 Lisbon World Expo. It was named after the adufe, a percussion instrument of Arabic origin with a long tradition in Portuguese folk music. The group’s success led Salgueiro to revive the project in 2008. This new production highlights the group's custom-made giant adufes, called adufões, remaining true to the original concept of connections and contrasts between past and present while searching for new pathways and sounds. The group’s repertoire includes original music composed by Peixoto, along with adaptations of traditional songs and rhythms.
Defining themselves as “a new Portuguese urban music movement”, the Quinteto de Lisboa is an initiative of João Monge and João Gil, founders of the acclaimed group Ala dos Namorados, together with José Peixoto and Fernando Júdice, members of the second line up of the pioneering group Madredeus. Aiming at giving Fado a new soul, the four musicians chose two young Fado singers to give voice to the project: Hélder Moutinho, a recipient of the Amália Rodrigues Award, and the Basque singer María Berasarte, whose record Todas las Horas Son Viejas has been hailed as the best Fado album ever recorded by a non-Portuguese artist.
