Es un museo que te deja muy sensible. Si quieren conocer esta música Portuguesa, como surgió y que significa, necesitan dedicarle tiempo y atención. Si ya están cansados física o mentalmente, recomiendo venir otro día. Es un museo para estar atento y receptivo. Dejar que la música te acompañe.
Muy interesante para conocer la historia del fado
Un museo bellísimo para conocer sobre la música que nació en la dictadora en Portugal. El fado es hermoso. La entrada al museo te incluye audioguia y hace que recorrido sea muy enriquecedor.
