Cesária Évora Orchestra | Tribute to the Barefoot Diva

Théâtre Maisonneuve February 27, 2025

The Cesária Évora Orchestra brings together the finest singers and musicians from Cape Verde to celebrate the music of the Barefoot Diva. Elida Almeida, Ceuzany, Lucibela, Teófilo Chantre, and former members of Cesária Évora’s band will be in Montreal to pay tribute to this magnificent repertoire.

Cesária Évora is undoubtedly Cape Verde’s most famous singer. With her uniquely melancholic tone and inimitable style, she captured millions of hearts and mesmerized audiences worldwide. Montreal is no exception, where she enraptured audiences on several memorable visits to our city. With her voice and her barefoot authenticity on stage, with each visit she strengthened a special bond with Montrealers and with world music lovers.

In 2014, three years after her passing, her former musicians and prominent voices of today united to tour and honour the Barefoot Diva’s incredible repertoire and the unique style of Cape Verdean music.

This evening at Théâtre Maisonneuve of Place des Arts promises not only an unforgettable homage to the great Cesária Évora, but a celebration of Cape Verdean culture—like a wisp of warm tropical breeze.
