Folha a Folha (Sheet by sheet) - Songs and Guitars of Coimbra - Grupo Presença de Coimbra (“Presence of Coimbra” Group)


Folha a Folha (Sheet by sheet) - Songs and Guitars of Coimbra - Grupo Presença de Coimbra (“Presence of Coimbra” Group)


Constituted by Manuel Borralho and José Ferraz de Oliveira (Portuguese guitars), Manuel Gouveia Ferreira (viola) and Fernando Gomes Alves (voice) the “Presence of Coimbra” Group began its activity in 1981 and has performed in a number of venues. Beyond the interpretation of traditional song, the group has dedicated itself primarily to the creation of new compositions, exploring new rhythms and sonorities, without, however, leaving behind the original Coimbra characteristics – which always remain recognizable. In the mid-1980’s the group began occasional collaborations with the singer Horácio Miranda. From 1994, the group has been reinforced by the inclusion of the singer Jorge Cravo. From its broad activity, the group’s participation in numerous medical and juridical benefit concerts merits special mention.
