Portuguese folk


Here, have some Portuguese music. This one comes from the north of Portugal. I've discovered it recently, and I was stunned. Its similarity with Corsican poliphony fascinates me. At the same time, it hasn't had the privilege of a commercial promotion, so it is slowly fading away.
And why is it here, on the New Art blog? Well, I have my reasons, but if you find its inadequate, well, live with it. And enjoy.

Weird. I've no idea what this sounds like, but I lived in Portugal as a child (and read Portuguese before English)--and I'm of (partial) Corsican heritage. A strange coincidence.
