Carlos Paredes is certainly the most well-recognised musician on the Portuguese guitar. It's therefore not surprising that in the centenary year of his birth, there is a proliferation of tributes.

In this week's Hora de Ponta, the public is invited to understand the legacy of this and other virtuoso musicians of an instrument that has always known how to emancipate itself from its position between the voices of fado and silence.

Hora de Ponta is a weekly activity organised by Fonoteca Municipal do Porto (FMP). Every Wednesday, between 6pm and 7pm, the public is invited to visit this space to an informal get-together and to listen to a selection of records associated to a specific theme.
