In Orion, Guide Me by Rafael Xavier, a fusion contemplates the sadness and melancholy of fado in the author’s voice and guitar, combined with the folk and classical influences brought to life by violinist and composer Eduardo Sousa. The dense, dark, and mysterious environment crafted by Xavier, captured through the lens of an artist, becomes an intriguing satire that doesn’t shy away from critiquing bribery, vice, clerical hypocrisy, corrupt politics, and social indifference. This musical journey culminates in a sublime act of redemption.
Xavier’s different, unconventional, and utterly unique approach to fado beckons listeners to take a ride while immersing themselves in the stunning accompanying video.
