Katia Guerreiro
[8] Her professional career began in the fall of 2000, when she went on stage at an event to honor fado singer Amália Rodrigues in Lisbon.[3] This was followed by Nas maos do fado (2003), with tracks by Luis de Camões, Florbela Espanca, Ary dos Santos and António Lobo Antunes.[3][12] In 2009, she was invited to perform with L' Ensemble Baja Normandía, and toured ten cities in France, then did some concerts in Portugal.[2] She is not as well known as other new fado singers such as Mariza, because of the lack of promotion and major label backing, but her work has received important awards.[3][12] In 2015, she received the Comenda da Ordem do Infante D. Henrique from the Portuguese president, along with Ana Moura, Carminho, Ricardo Ribeiro and Mario Pacheco.One example of this is Ancorado en Mim, which takes the melody of Santa Lucia and matches it with a poem by Ana Vidal.
