Manitoba, Canada-based 6-woman World/Folk group Madrigaia's repertoire reflects their love for the many cultures of the world while giving special attention to their French-Canadian roots. On 'Viva Voce' they sing wonderful versions of ancient and modern folk songs in French, Spanish, Hungarian, Yugoslavian, Mic mac, Croatian, Hebrew, Yiddish, and more, both a cappella and lightly accompanied by bass, viola, drums and percussion. Some favorites: 'Niska Banja,' 'Odi, odi,' 'Vus vet zayn,' 'En filant ma quenouille,' 'Vichten' and 'Grain de mil.' A fresh, spirited sound from the north country!
