the record label press:
Maria Laffitte was the voice of the Troubadors and made herself to one of the protagonists of the Canción Tradicional Catalana. She interpreted the traditional songs of Catalunya on countless occasions and achieved to give these songs a modernized significance. When Maria Laffitte sings from love, earth or birds you feel her authentic devotion and conviction.
The song “El Poder del Canto” is about a singing prisoner who is able to irritate the flying birds and to capture the king so that he believes in the innocence of a man who knows to sing that beautiful. It´s almost impossible to find a better way to express the spiritual value of a song.
The traditional song is the wonderful masterpiece of a people who feels and sings it. Joan Amades

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
