Leva-me aos Fados features participations of José Mário Branco, Lisbon Bagpipes, Manuela de Freitas, Amélia Muge and Toze Brito.

[1] In "Leva-me aos fados" Ana Moura harnesses the wind and grows in proportion to time, sure her longtime producer, Jorge Fernando, gives a help, especially in the composition of most of the 15 songs in this album.

Ana Moura also recorded a version of a theme of Alfredo Carpinteiro, called "Fado das águas".

She stepped over 300 different stages in their last tour, she visited dozens of countries on several continents and was the focus of attention in 2010 when the Press French realized a purposeful trip to see Prince singing in Paris.

[1] "Well, at the beginning I wasn't really excited about a new recording, but Fernando coniviced me and came up with a song called "Leva-me aos Fados" to be released as the lead single.

Filipe Larsen later sent her a demo of "Rumo ao Sul", which she loved, stating "it was so refreshing to hear something so different from what I had been working on.

All string and orchestral arrangements were recorded at World Village studios in Lisbon by Ana Moura and Jorge Frenando.

The recording of "Leva-me aos Fados" took nearly three months, becoming the longest period of time Moura had worked on a project.

"Caso Arrumado", written in partnership with Manuela de Freitas and Pedro Rodriguez, talks to us about a love of husband and wife divorced.

"Talvez Depois", written by Fernando and Jorge Custódio Castelo, tells about a problematic love, when a woman asks the man to "give a time" to the relationship.

"Rumo Ao Sul", a contemporary fado, written by Jorge Fernando Viana and Carlos, talks about a woman who escapes to follow her dreams.

"Fado das Águas", written by Mario Raínho Marcceneiro and Alfredo, talks about, in general, water and love.

"De Quando Em Vez", written by Maria Dos Anjos, talks about a man who refuses to love his wife.

Ana Moura in the shows has followed essentially the alignment of her latest album, "Para Além da Saudade".

In the "Stones World", the Portuguese singer interprets the themes "Brown Sugar" and "No Expectations", later sung alive and in duet with Mick Jagger in 2007 during the concert by the band in the Alvalade XXI Stadium.

The title of the new album by Ana Moura, announces a lightness of spirit and a contextualization of the Portuguese genre outside the country.

And so does Ana Moura to the album, which shows the melancholy soul more race, in which sings a lament more angry than a contemplative acceptance of the moments of life.

"Leva-me aos Fados" is already a Gold Record, having old 10,000 units by the end of the year of 2009, and promised to keep the legacy of multi-platinum "Para Além da Saudade".

Allmusic gave the album a rating of 4 out of 5 stars and said: "a 12-string Portuguese guitar, a conventional six-string guitar, a bass, and her achingly lovely voice belting out fados both new and old in a style that draws deeply on tradition while incorporating subtle melodic and rhythmic innovations in a seamless, unprepossessing way.

Songs like "A Penumbra," "De Quando em Vez," and "Leva-me aos Fados" all deal with the particular brand of romantic longing that is particular to this genre: a dark and bittersweet sense of loss and regret.

A tango rhythm here, a strutting and defiant backbeat there—only serve to deepen and enrich the tradition to which Ana Moura is clearly devoted.".

Amazon gave a positive review to the album and said: "Moura communicates world-weary, indomitable courage spiced with a risqué tang of dark passion that hurts so good".

DiscoDigital gave a very positive review commenting that "the album is absolutely gorgeous, Ana Moura sings like she never sung before.

PopMatters gave a rating of 8 out of 10 stars, saying: "Overall, though, this is another excellent showcase for Moura's art, with at least half of the album's tracks standing out as classics.

Rhapsody gave the album a favorable review and said: "she's found a way to make fado contemporary and engaging.

In the album format, fado can feel slow and emotionally monotone – what was romantic becomes downright depressing after 10 songs.

Unlike so many popular singers who attempt to make what they are doing sound difficult in order to impress us, there is a glorious ease in the way she moves through a song".
