Orchestra Bailam & Compagnia Di Canto Trallalero - Galata
Catalogue No: FY8198
Barcode: 885016819828
The Orchestra Bailam and the Compagnia di Canto Trallalero have together created music inspired by the Galata district of old Constantinople that was a Genoese colony for two hundred years between the 13th and 15th centuries. The rhythms and music are affected by the dense perfume of Rebetiko and texts in Genoese give voice to a Genoa far from its roots and influenced by Turkish, Greek, Persian, Armenian, Kurdish, Arabic and Balkan cultures.
