Mediterranea
(CD)
Savina Yannatou
From the fertile
landscape of the Mediterranean rim comes this evocative new offering of
songs from
Savina Yannatou, one of the region’s most stellar voices today. Yannatou
has
already been hailed
throughout Europe for her ability to enrapture audiences with
the ancient tonal textures and unheard
local dialects of the Mediterranean world.
Now, on Mediterranea, Savina Yannatou joins forces with the acclaimed
Primavera en Salonico
ensemble to offer this shimmering mosaic of ethereal voice and rhythm from the
nearly-lost
song traditions of Greece, Tunisia, Sicily, Corsica, Albania, the Holy Land and
more.
With toumbeleki, bendir, tambourine, daoul, kanonaki, viola, nay, oud,
tamboura, recorder,
guitar, violin, and double bass.
60 minutes
