Notes

Traditional and historical Italian songs by Ensemble Terra D'Otranto. 24Bit / 96 kHz Digital Recording at Masseria Torcito, Cannole, Lecce (Italy) October, 2004

The hypnotic magic of the tarantula and the mysterious charm of Grico, an ancient language, forgotten but not dead: a rigorous and at the same time energetic interpretation by the Ensemble Terra D'Otranto in the successful attempt to bring back to life after four centuries, musical forms that are still the basis of Italian musical tradition.
