With &#8220;Andorinhas,&#8221; the first single from her upcoming album (to be released this year), the singer employs an image of swallows as a symbol of artistic renewal, &#8220;<em>of freedom and emancipation, of pure creativity, of refusing the chains of success, a declaration of a will for the future.<\/em>&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accompanied by a graceful video shot on the roofs of a popular Olh\u00e3o neighborhood in the Algarve, the song combines Portuguese guitar, an instrument emblematic of fado, with African percussion and electronic layering. Dressed in a traditional Algarvian outfit, called \u201c<em>bioco,<\/em>\u201d which is reminiscent of the burqa, Ana Moura combines ancestral imagery with a remarkable burst of modernity. Of Angolan origin on her mother\u2019s side, the singer nods to her heritage by uniting with the popular Angolan singer Paulo Flores who features in a cameo at the dinner table, where conviviality and diversity reign between generations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/b4b4ac20-capture-d%E2%80%99%C3%A9cran-2021-05-04-%C3%A0-15.00.23.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-79427\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><figcaption>Ana Moura<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The famous Portuguese fado singer has released a genre bending new single &#8220;Andorinhas&#8221;: &#8220;a hymn to freedom with a Creole balance turned towards the future,&#8221; produced by Pedro Da Linha and Pedro Mafama.
