About

Fonoteca Municipal do Porto (FMP) is simultaneously a sound archive of the city - representative of a large part of the record production in Portugal, as well as imported records, by international artists and works of non-musical content, such as poetry or political speeches - and a public space of musical enjoyment.

The collection, comprised by a collection of more than 35 thousand vinyl records, was created mainly through donations from Rádio Renascença and Rádio Difusão Portuguesa, as well as institutions and individuals that recognize the importance of the project. Continuing this mission and archiving and documentation, FMP will remain open to donations from everyone.

The project takes on an informational and pedagogical commitment, open to all audiences, by producing podcasts, articles and visual displays on artists, themes, genres, among others, of the materials that make up the collection. FMP features a series of activities that reflect the intention of connecting the history of music to contemporary culture, which includes concerts by guest artists based on the existing archive, weekly active listening programmes, school visits and in-house artists.
