Piemontese music: how does it sound to you?

[Roy]

Piemontese sounds really lovely as a language. The music itself sounds like a mix of celtic and medieval German music.

Here the spoken version

[Peyrol]

Piedmontese popular songs sound to me like a mix between Po Valley traditional music and West Alpine valley one. Melodies are not so much different than the ones from Emilia Romagna and Lombardy.

Emilian and Romagnan music sounds totally different, the melody and the instruments are totally differrents.

Another alpine songs (from Cuneo valleys)

That song from Cuneo valleys sounds great.

I don't know what to vote, Peyrol. There are moments when it sounds like any of those three styles to me, probably because the three styles are way too general too. Or because you are near the three traditions. So maybe I should vote for Other?

Btw, to be frank, I thought I'd understand it a little bit more. I mean, without the lyrics. I caught the general sense, but not every word.

they are different if compared with the songs you've selected, but popular Piedmontese songs are usually accompanied by the same instruments of the rest of Northern Italy, I' ve linked them in the other post.


Anyway how old is this song? When does that text has been set to music?

Do emilians use the Viola de Rota, called also Ghironda by tuscans?



The song you linked (''Monferrina'', ''Bella Gigolin'', etc) are all of XIX-XX centuries (and mostly written by lombards, in reality), and the one sung by Milva was written by Gipo Farassino in the early '50s...these songs are more ancient.
