  "Just April" Show - A Tribute to Zeca Afonso

  April 25th Celebrations and the Show "Apenas Abril" – A Tribute to Zeca Afonso Featuring the Ourique Choir at the show’s opening. INÊS Apenas presents “Apenas Abril,” a show that pays tribute to José Afonso through the voices and vision of new talents in Portuguese music. In this reimagining of the repertoire of Zeca Afonso, one of the most iconic and revolutionary figures in Portuguese music, distinct musical worlds intersect: the intimacy of acoustic instruments blends with contemporary sounds, creating a fusion that revisits April with a modern perspective. The core lineup features singer, songwriter, and pianist Inês Apenas, accompanied by Carolina Viana (Malva) and Joana Rodrigues, the music producer who completes the duo Redoma. Also joining as special guests are Bia Maria, Inês Monstro, and fado singer Sérgio Onze. The show “apenas abril” is supported by Antena 1. Cast INÊS apenas - vocals, guitar, and piano Carolina Viana - vocals, cello, and percussion Joana Rodrigues - vocals and programming Bia Maria - special guest Luís Monteiro - sound engineer Diogo Fernandes - production For more information: 286 510 411
