hymns to the divinities, elegiac love poems, canticles celebrating
the profusion and the intangible links of the man to the nature,
serene questionings on the beyond of life ?

Conference - Tasting of CORSES POLYPHONIES
Sacred Corsican Polyphonies in the Feminine
By Nadine Rossello, of the Madamicella Ensemble
Corsican polyphony, a very singular oral transmission repertoire, changes the usual codes of positioning (closed semicircle), accountability (one per voice) and exchanges (no direction) within the group. It opens to a form of interpretation very incarnated which leaves a real space of freedom (tempis) and improvisation (ornaments) to the singers.
