lyrics

L’Inconnu de limoise (The unknown man from Limoise) is a French mazurka composed by J.F. Maxou Heintzen. A composition that often travels only in an instrumental version but which includes beautiful lyrics that the ensemble has arranged for two voices.

L'INCONNU DE LIMOISE
Il doit dormir, depuis tout ce temps
Bien gentiment, sous trois pieds de terre
V'là qu'on le dérange, impoliment
Quelle drôle d'idée, d'changer d'cimetière
Dedans sa tombe, tout contre sa tête
On a trouvé son seul bagage
Sa cornemuse, sa chère musette
Qui accompagne son grand voyage
Car on n'a pas pu les séparer
Et c'est peut-être beaucoup mieux ainsi
On les a trouvés, ils dorment dans le même lit
C'était peut-être pas un maître-sonneur
Mais il aimait ce sacré bout de bois
un peu comme une soeur que
l'on veut garder près de soi

Cordamundi nasce in Puglia, sud Italia, nel 2018. Nel repertorio troviamo arrangiamenti di canti tradizionali di vari luoghi del pianeta e brani di composizione ispirati alla world music.

Le voci si intrecciano e costruiscono tessuti sonori che incontrano il ritmo e la vibrazione di altre corde. ... more
