As I am a native-born Portuguese from Lisbon (now an American citizen for many years), I was delighted last summer to find a fado singer from Portugal at the festival. Fado is the song of Lisbon, and I never expected to hear it in Bangor, Maine, being sung by a Portuguese native! I introduced myself between sets, and, to my surprise, she dedicated a number to me at the next set. I do hope she is planning to return this summer. What a wonderful experience.
Editor’s Note: For Veazie resident Deolinda Amaral Olver Aronson, the 64th National Folk Festival was a memorable time. Aronson and other Mainers are sharing their experiences in the days before the 65th National Folk Festival this weekend.
