Café Curto, at the table with music.
The Café Curto cycle is returning in 2025 with the usual proposal: every week a thirty-minute showcase is served, with a strong focus on young artists and emerging projects. Since 2020, more than 170 sessions have taken place, putting Coimbra on the map of the national music circuit. In addition to the express showcases, music is enjoyed in double doses in the last week of each month with Café Duplo, an artistic dialogue between different languages and geographies, resulting in a unique concert.

Mary Orcher

Mary Orcher is an experimental artist based in Berlin who has been exploring the boundaries between pop and avant-garde music for almost two decades, playing with colourful forms and historical and cultural references to create concept albums loaded with political and apocalyptic themes. Her latest album, ‘Your Guide to Revolution’, is an ode to hope, in a vast musical landscape that ranges from post-punk and folk, to deconstructed techno and cosmic synthesiser compositions. This latest work has already earned her recognition from The Quietus, Bandcamp and the German Record Critics Prize.
