Mùsica siciliana

[alfieb]

I like the guitarist. Singer's a bit too cliche indie-folk sounding for me.

This is a very great song

Spoiler!

^ I doubt this is really a Sicilian song, it has clearly Arab stocks. The folk band is called Al Qantarah and performs songs from the multiethnic medieval Sicily (Arab included) at the time of Frederick which ruled with a multiethnic court. That song in particular is took from the Arab repertory.

The ensemble Al Qantarah was created in 1990 to develop a project on Sicilian music, based on the comparison between the medieval repertoire and the oral tradition still alive, and which also includes Arabian and Middle Eastern Music repertoires.

I wouldn't really use music from the (multiethnic) medieval period and classify it as "Sicilian". Better pick modern music.
