This debate promoted by the brand metaformações falls within the scope of the project of this brand "República Paredes", which began in 2007, a tribute show to Carlos Paredes.
With regard to the restoration of the event in 2010, it is proposed to discuss the professionalism of the Coimbra Guitar, since it has remained on an amateur basis, unlike Fado de Lisboa. The Guitar and the Music of Coimbra also undoubtedly have a lack of visibility, although they have an undeniable potential.
Two guitarists from the city, Paulo Soares and Ricardo Dias, a Valentim de Carvalho member, Pedro Tenreiro, and a Professor from the Portuguese Institute of Marketing Administration, Joaquim Marques, were invited to the panel discussion.

república carlos paredes 2007

REPÚBLICA CARLOS PAREDES is a metaformações' project based on the existence of Carlos Paredes, inseparable from the Guitar of Coimbra. Carlos Paredes and his father have a significant part of the repertoire of Guitar of Coimbra, the structuring element of the Music of Coimbra. Not only the repertoire, but also and particularly the visibility, owes the "Guitar of Coimbra", in large scale, to the author, here, honored .

This project, which is under development, is not limited to Carlos Paredes, but is open to the scope of the Music of Coimbra itself. It is also not restricted to the tribute show to the author, held on October 5th, 2007, in Coimbra, and is expected to be developed in the future.
