Almost Famous: Filipe Furtado Trio and "Como Se Matam Primaveras" ("How Springtimes Are Killed"), one of the best Portuguese albums of 2025

He was born on the island of São Miguel but has lived in Coimbra for 16 years. After debuting with “Prelúdio”, an album where the guitar was his creative anchor, he turned to the piano and consolidated his trio with “Como Se Matam Primaveras” (selected by BLITZ as one of the best Portuguese albums of 2025). Filipe Furtado and his trio are this week’s highlight in the column dedicated to emerging talents.
