Fado, is a cello duet I wrote while touring Portugal in the 1980s. I fell in love with the local Fado (fate) music. Fado is usually performed by a female singer and a guitarist. The melancholy and beautiful music captured my heart and my soul. This sweet performance is by brother and sister cellists Sidney and Noah Lee.
