“L’è e Mez d’la Sira” is released on Bandcamp as a free download in support of the ANÚNA Education Programme. Please feel free to donate or purchase ANÚNA releases. All money will go to support the Programme.

"‘L’è e mez d’la sira’ is a song steeped in poetry and emotion, hailing from Frignano and brought to the fore by the musical research group, Viulan. It narrates the night of Jesus' birth, a moment of mystery and wonder where people, drawn by a mysterious light, moved through the darkness. The protagonist, struck by the tenderness and strength of this newborn who comes into the world in poverty yet enveloped by a mother's unconditional love, joins the angels' chorus to wish him a tranquil night, reassuring him that he is not alone.

Massimo Orlandini’s simple but powerful arrangement conveys all the sweetness and strength of this pure love, reflecting the land from which it draws inspiration, his home Frignano.

This piece was a highlight of the 2023 ANÚNA Summer School which took place in Pavullo Nel Frignano, opening the doors to an artistic journey that merges diverse cultures, embodying the spirit of the educational project launched by ANÚNA nearly 15 years ago.

This path of sharing and participation continues into 2024 (Details HERE), with the ambition of creating an international musical community from which to mutually draw and, by doing so, offer new cultural inspiration to the communities of origin.
