Composition of the choruses for Seneca’s Medea:
The inspiration for this work came partly from the maze of the island’s oral memory; there are also influences from other vocal traditions of Corsica which the singers of A Filetta have been collecting since the Rencontres de Chants Polyphoniques of Calvi first began. Four long choruses lasting a total of about 48 minutes, evoking the past loves of Medea and Jason, the epic of the Argonauts and finally the murderous fury of the repudiated wife, banned from the kingdom. A sometimes harsh music which is often tender and even fragile but which always expresses the violence of the feelings and the fear of men in face of the anger of the gods.
The repertoire of Medea was first recorded in 2005.
National release of the album MEDEA, June 2006 (Naïve).
