"Millenovecentonovantadieci
is an important step in the evolution of the project, highlighted by new
arrangements and a better recording quality. It is characterised by:
-
the important contribution
of actress Aurora Simeone, who reads an extract of the historical
events at the grounds of "U Cheuttu e u crüu".
-
the intervention of
saxophonist Marcello Carro, who enriches the songs with suggestive
melodic embroidery.
-
the insertion in Gh’ea n’erbu
of a chorus going back to the traditional “Tabarkin” songs, E
disette de zenà and Girumetta.
The CD was presented in Siena on 19/4/00, at
the Libreria Novecento, and in Cagliari, at the University Theatre Nanny
Loy, on 28/6/00. The presentation was cured by journalists Giacomo Serreli
(Videolina, Cous cous), Walter Porcedda (La Nuova Sardegna, Musica di
Repubblica), Susanna Lavazza (Carnet)and by Condaghes’ editor, Giovanni
Manca.
