Improvisations On Ancient Tradition

Colla Voche : Ernst Reijseger, cello. Tenore e Cuncordu de Orosei, Sardinian vocal ensemble.

Mix of improv, folk and traditional. A lot of plucked cello ala a jazz double bass. Unique vocal tradition from Sardinia. Elements of throat singing, at other times strangely reminiscent of native American chanting and even South African vocal styles.
