In the second half of 2024, we will continue the Café Curto cycle of showcases, which began in October 2020 and has already had more than 150 sessions. On a weekly basis, on Tuesday evenings, the public will be able to enjoy a variety of musical proposals on the stage of the Café Concerto of the Convento São Francisco. Between 3 September and 17 December, there will be 15 performances featuring artists with expressions ranging from the intimacy of folk song, to the experimentalism of electronica, the energy of pop, the boldness of jazz and the unique jazz and the singularity of world music.
MIC – Musa
Musa is the latest musical project selected by the MIC – Música Independente de Coimbra call for proposals to appear at Café Curto in 2024. Mariana Garrido is a recent law graduate from the University of Coimbra and, when she sings, she is Musa, inspired by influences ranging from indie, soul, bossa nova and jazz. She recently discovered that, as well as using her voice as an instrument, she likes to compose, and has been collecting songs on the pages of a notebook, which are now coming to life.
