Corsican Folk

Corsican folk music, deeply rooted in the island's rich cultural history, is characterized by its polyphonic vocals and traditional instrumentation. This genre often features harmonious, a cappella singing, where multiple voices intertwine to create a resonant and spiritual sound that reflects the island's landscapes and heritage. The lyrics, typically sung in Corsican, convey themes of love, nature, and the struggles of island life. Instruments such as the cetera, a type of Corsican guitar, and other traditional percussive elements complement the vocal harmonies. Esteemed artists like Christophe Mondoloni and Alte Voce have contributed to preserving and revitalizing this genre, ensuring its continued resonance with both Corsican communities and wider audiences.
