He attended the Liceu Nacional D. João III and the Faculty of Arts of Coimbra, and was a member of the Orfeon Académico of Coimbra and the Tuna Académica of the University of Coimbra. In 1953 he recorded his first album, Fados de Coimbra. Between 1962 and 1968, Zeca began his musically richest period, creating his first intervention songs. He met his friend and guitarist Rui Pato, a medical student, with whom he recorded 49 songs and traveled the country in dozens of shows in workers' communities, student associations, film clubs, everywhere he was called to use his song as a weapon against the Salazar dictatorship. . In 1963, the first songs of a markedly political nature were released, Os Vampiros and Menino do Bairro Negro (the first, against the oppression of capitalism; the second, inspired by the misery of Bairro do Barredo, in Porto) were part of the album Baladas de Coimbra which would later be banned by Censorship. In 1964, he worked at the Sociedade Musical Fraternidade Operária Grandolense, where he was inspired to make Grândola, Vila Morena. The song would become the password of the Armed Forces Movement in the coup of April 25, 1974, remaining one of the most significant songs of the revolutionary period. In 1967, he was placed as a teacher in Setúbal, where he taught for a short time, as he ended up being expelled from official teaching. From that year onwards, it definitively became a symbol of democratic resistance. It maintains contacts with the Revolutionary Unity and Action League and the Portuguese Communist Party, although it remains independent of parties. In 1969, he participated in the 1st Meeting of the Chanson Portugaise de Combat, in Paris, and recorded Cantares do Andarilho, receiving the Casa da Imprensa award for Best Album of the Year and Best Performance. In 1971, he published Cantigas do Maio, in which Grândola, Vila Morena appeared, which he ended up performing for the first time in a concert held on May 10, 1972, at the university residence Burgo das Nações, today Auditorio da Galiza, in Santiago de Compostela. In 1973, he sang at the III Congress of the Democratic Opposition and recorded the album Venham mais Cinco. Between April and May 1973, he was detained in the Caxias Prison Fort by PIDE/DGS. After the Revolution of April 25, 1974, he emphasized his defense of freedom, having held several sessions in support of different movements, in Portugal and abroad. His last shows took place in the coliseums of Lisbon and Porto, in 1983, at an advanced stage of his disease (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). In 1985, his last original album Galinhas do Mato was released, in which, due to the state of his illness, Zeca was unable to perform all the songs planned. He passed away on February 23, 1987, at Hospital de São Bernardo, in Setúbal. “Music made in Portugal” I created this channel just to promote national music, the Portuguese language and Portuguese-speaking culture.
