Símbolo de Portugal mundialmente reconhecido, o fado diz tanto sobre a alma lusitana que se torna obrigatório ouvi-lo para quem visita o país e quer realmente conhecê-lo. Cantado de modos diferentes, consoante a região, o fado continua a ter as suas origens envoltas em mistério.
Geralmente é cantado por uma só pessoa, fadista e acompanhado por guitarra clássica, denominada entre os fadistas de viola, e guitarra portuguesa. A origem da palavra fado é do latim “fatum” que significa destino.
Outra teoria sustenta que teria chegado a Portugal sob a forma de Lundum, música cantada pelos escravos brasileiros, e reproduzida pelos marinheiros que chegavam daquelas paragens.
Uma terceira hipótese defende a sua origem nas cantigas da Idade Média: Cantigas de Amigo, Cantigas de Amor e Cantigas de Escárnio e Maldizer, as quais continham características que o fado ainda conserva.
Uma quarta possibilidade é que passou a ser conhecido depois de 1840, nas ruas de Lisboa um dos fados mais antigos é o “fado do marinheiro” que assim como as cantigas de levantar ferro as cantigas das fainas, ou a cantiga do degredado era cantada pelos marinheiros na proa do navio.
A figura do fadista nasce como artista durante as décadas de 30 e 40 e é nesta época de ouro do fado onde os tocadores, cantadores saem das vielas e recantos escondidos para brilharem nos palcos do teatro, nas luzes do cinema, para serem ouvidos na rádio ou em discos, surgem então as Casas de Fado e com elas o lançamento do artista de fado profissional.
Para poder cantar nestas Casas era necessária carteira profissional e um repertório visado pela Comissão de Censura, bem como, um estilo próprio e boa aparência.
