La Lira D'Esperia 2 - Galicia Alia Vox 2014
a show of music from Galicia, the most northwesterly of the Spanish provinces. So-called "Celtic Spain" because the Moors never got up there in the 8th century, they do not play Flamenco, but they do play bagpipes and have a lot of dances in 6/8. We start with a nearly 800 year old dance from the area, an Istampita.
