Mariza to perform in NYC on Oct. 15 and in Newark on Oct. 16

Portuguese Fado singer Mariza will be performing at Town Hall in New York City on Saturday, October 15 at 8 pm and at NJPAC in Newark on Sunday, October 16 at 7 pm.

Mariza’s performance at NJPAC where she has performed previously features special guest Brazilian singer Bebel Gilberto.

The new face of fado, Mariza has not only revitalized what once seemed a dimming tradition but did so while bringing it to new audiences. She will be presenting her new Latin Grammy-nominated recording Mundo (World) which includes classics honoring the late fado legend Amália Rodrigues and iconic tango singer Carlos Gardel, and new songs written for her by the Grammy-winning Spanish producer Javier Limón.
