La Névoa i en Vicenç Solsona s'han regalat aquest espai on abordar un repertori sense limitacions d'estils o gèneres i on totes les peces han de tenir en comú que els agradin a tots dos. Fado, bolero, jazz, bossanova, copla, en anglès, italià, portuguès, català o castellà, tots els vehicles són acceptats per fer arribar la bellesa i el sentiment a qui els escolta. “L'esplèndida veu de Névoa, densa, intensa, dramàtica, adquireix sobre les cordes de Vicenç Solsona una projecció lleugera i delicada, com si l'esgarip de les històries que explica es convertís en una carícia.” Jamboree (Barcelona).
