At the concert, Sobral will be accompanied by Lucía Fumero on piano, Magali Sare on flute, André Rosinha on double bass, Joel Silva on percussion, and André Santos on guitar.

In the 70-minute uninterrupted performance, Salvador Sobral and his team will perform selected tracks from the "Timbre" album as well as other hit songs that have found a special place in the hearts of listeners.

The concert repertoire includes pieces such as "Amor a Capela," "Porque Canto," and "El Regalo Que Me Hiciste," as well as many other works that will offer a musical feast.

RECORD SCORE

In 2017, at the 62nd Eurovision Song Contest held in Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, Sobral placed first with 758 points for the song 'Amar Pelos Dois,' written by his sister Luísa Sobral.

This jazz-pop song broke the record previously held by Jamala with 524 points, reaching 758 points, and no one has been able to surpass this record since.

'THIS ALBUM IS LIKE A COLORFUL PALETTE OF SOUNDS'

'Timbre' is the fourth studio album released by Salvador Sobral in September 2023. The album consists of 11 original tracks created together with Leo Aldrey, who also undertook the production.

Sobral said the following regarding the album's title:

"First, as a singer and interpreter, what defines and distinguishes me the most is my voice, that is, my 'timbre.' Second, I have an interest in the color of the voice and instruments, that is, the color of the 'timbre.' This album is like a colorful palette of sounds, offering clarity to the listener."
