Albanian iso-polyphony – Hasmi Zu Vatanë
This ambitious project brings together the most incredible vocal traditions. This amalgamation, not exactly a fusion, since each tradition is still perfectly recognizable, showcases Albanian iso-polyphony with its plangent quality, the cantu a tenore of the Sardinian countryside, Beko blues singing of southern Madagascar, Finnish yoik and rune singing and the Belgian récit chanté.
