With their marvelous harmonies and dissonances, this female polyphonic trio from Quercy plunges you into the mysteries of sacred and popular songs from the Mediterranean Arc.
These songs were collected from the Italian boot to Andalusia, and handed down from the 4th to the 19th century.
An exhilarating musical journey through the Marian cult, from Gregorian chant to Occitan, Catalan, Provençal and Neapolitan traditions.
The songs open up to the lively, fervent or contemplative expression of popular religiosity.
On the program: Syriac Aramaic songs, 12th-century Catalan canticles (Goigs), 3rd-century Latin prayer, Andalusian saetas, 16th-century Provençal noëls, cantiques niçois, Basque, Asturian and Sicilian songs.
"To the vibrant magic of traditional polyphonic song, born of a natural harmony meticulously chiselled over time, La Soubirane brings the powerful, spellbinding depth of sacred song. The meeting point between these two worlds: femininity". (Actu Lot)
