Synopsis

Hailing from islands separated by vast oceans, cantu in paghjella and peroveta are distinct choral traditions central to worship in Corsica and Papua New Guinea, respectively. In this lecture-demonstration, the Corsican brothers and the Kapari Viriolo Cultural Ambassadors engage in conversation, sharing their devotional songs and island traditions.

 

Audiences are invited to listen, learn, and ask questions as these two island ensembles explore faith and tradition through music.
