{"product_id":"manu-theron_sirventes_2015_disco-virgin-music-group","title":"Sirventes","description":"Présent since the first stammerings of the Trobar (the poetry of the troubadours), the Sirventés is of a contestatory style: it describes without restraint the violence of its century, the stupidity of the powerful, and the fleetingness of human feelings. To the cliché reducing the troubadour to a mournful lover hiding in his ivory tower, the Sirventés opposes the image of a poet-musician who mocks the princes, ridicules the Church, caught with his contemporaries in the turmoil and war. The three musicians (including Manu Théron from the group Lo Cor de la Plana on vocals) have chosen to respect, by developing or drawing inspiration from them, the original melodies, recorded at the end of the 13th century by the last troubadours. They take advantage of their respective experiences, accumulated during encounters - utopian or proven - between Eastern and Western music, popular and scholarly, ancient and contemporary. Accustomed to digression and improvisation, they also offer a courteous, immoderate, and above all unexpected response to those who know, like our troubadours, what music and poetry can do to alleviate the absurdity of the world.","brand":"Manu Theron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57767735198040,"sku":null,"price":20150113.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3149028064223.jpg?v=1784708103","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/manu-theron_sirventes_2015_disco-virgin-music-group","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
