 El suaņu (The Dream) Author: Esbardu
CD by the pipe band, including a selection of traditional Asturian tunes as
well as a few from some other celtic nations.
Long description: Since their founding in 1989, Esbardu have been one of the most active
and productive societies in Asturies, as far as concerns the study and
diffusion of tradicional Asturian customs and folklore, especially around the
area of Aviles, where they annually organize one of the main interceltic
festivals in Asturies.El suañu, The CD is divided into
four parts each of which refer to one of the seasons of the year (Spring,
Summer, Autumn and Winter).
The content of the first season is made up of three pieces taken from the
Asturian folk heritage, each one adapted by the pipe band. In the second season
the pipe band leave the Asturian geography, crossing borders of sand and sea,
to approach other countries with which Asturies shares a greater affinity in
their musical tradition. In Autumn we find three traditional dancing tunes from
three different counties of Asturies--Cangas, Somiedu, and Tinéu, chosen
for the brilliance and vigour of their folklore. Winter, the harshest season,
sad and demanding, in which we come across three different forms of cultural
manifestations which have been around from the remote of times, surviving to
our very days due to their charm and freshness.
