Yaraka
Curannera
Eight songs including original compositions and some from the tradition re-arranged. The musical journey of Yaraka winds its way throughout all of Southern Italy starting from the old city of Taranto, the backdrop to the storytelling of the ensemble's origins and research work carried out with the intention of rediscovering and uplifting the traditions of the past. A journey that departs from one's own land, which uses invocation, or a call or summons as an anthropological phenomenon is something, in fact, which fascinated the trio, leading them to dig into the primordial to find the junction point between primordial cultures and ethnic groups. Taranto, like all seaside cities, is historically a meeting point between distant places. Through their music, Yaraka wishes to pay homage to the long history of the city founded by the Spartans, and to the significant role it played during the Magna Grecia period.
