Our love for music, in special for the “Fado de Coimbra”, allied to the desire to maintain alive our academic past and traditions lead us to create the Group of Fados and Serenatas of the University of the Minho (Grupo de Fados e Serenatas da Universidade do Minho). Currently the group is formed by former and last year students of the University of the Minho: Fernando Faria (Portuguese guitar), Sergio Lucas (Portuguese guitar), Miguel Rego (voice), Pedro Paredes (viola) and Jorge Pinto (viola).”
