Música cabo-verdiana is a vibrant tapestry woven from the diverse cultural threads of Cape Verde's history, reflecting a melting pot of Portuguese, African, and Brazilian influences. This genre is a colorful blend of traditional sounds such as morna—a melancholic, lyrically rich style often compared to the blues or fado—and the upbeat, dance-oriented coladeira. Instruments like the guitar, cavaquinho, and the unique violão provide the genre's backbone, while the rhythms draw from African and Latin beats, manifesting in lively genres like funaná. The music often carries themes of longing, love, and the trials of daily life, bridging the past with contemporary experiences. Artists like Bana and Voz de Cabo Verde have contributed to the genre's rich legacy, bringing the soulful essence of the islands to the world stage.
