GIVING VOICE 11 - MARTINO CORIMBI (ITALY) AND BOZENA MUSZKALSKA (POLAND) [April 2009]
VOICES AND SOUNDS FROM SARDINIA: TENORE, CUNCORDU AND LAUNEDDAS

Thursday 23 April, 4.30 - 5.30 pm - Sardinia is one of the most distinctive cultural regions of Italy, and has a rich living musical heritage, considered so important that the Sardinian canto a tenore was honoured by UNESCO in 2005 as a ‘Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity’.This presentation will illuminate the complex harmonies, and sound multiplicities of the Sardinian voice and launeddas (bagpipe) traditions, where, using extensive variations on a few melodic phrases, a single song can last over an hour.
