Music stores Cape Verde

Mindelo being the capital of music, a visit to a luthier's workshop is almost a matter of course. A specialist in the making of cavaquinhos (small four-string guitars), Aniceto Gomes is also known for having been, in his youth, the repairer of the instruments of the musicians of the late Cesária. Using recycled boards and wood, armed with his tools and great patience, he operates in his small workshop located near the cemetery.

In this small music store, you may be lost in a large choice of CDs of Cape Verdean artists, but we are here to advise you. This is an opportunity to learn about all the components of local music and variety. Fans of Cesaria Evora will be happy: postcards and numerous CDs of the star are part of the proposals. If you missed it, the house also has an annex at the airport. Possibility to book tickets for concerts: ask for the program!
