{"product_id":"l-alba_grilli_2025_soc","title":"GRILLI","description":"The text *I Grilli* (the crickets), which inspired this album, offers a glimpse into a vision of Corsican music, its identity, and its multiple influences. It is composed of three verses used to create interconnected song sub-sections (sometimes the text is sung in its entirety, while at other times, a single verse is enough to introduce a sub-section, thereby revealing unique musical nuances). The aim of this album is to offer an immersive experience in which each song, while having its own identity, is part of a global creation where the text *I Grilli* serves as the common thread.\n\nPolyphony, largely present, is the foundation of the research work; it plays a central role in the genesis of the album, which follows on from the compositional work of the previous album *A principiu*. Creative inspiration is fostered by the island's geographical position, its history, and a musical approach deliberately oriented towards other horizons.\n\nThe section incorporating ancient writings, preceded by a *Currente* (improvised text on a traditional tune), is imbued with a sound atmosphere consistent with the group's musical identity.\n\nSignificant space is given to compositions in the \"Corsican cabaret song\" style, inspired by the works of emblematic singers from the pre-Riacquistu period (a cultural movement that emerged in Corsica in the 1970s), when Corsican music began to evolve while remaining deeply rooted in the island's musical traditions. A reading of the text *I Grilli* introduces this section.\n\nThe album concludes with a *nanna* (lullaby) and a series of unclassifiable pieces that perfectly illustrate the group's research work.","brand":"L ALBA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55312565076312,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3341342603274_222685b3-84c7-487e-bc0a-5314033533db.jpg?v=1760401937","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/l-alba_grilli_2025_soc","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
