Guided tour of the Bell Tower-Porch followed by a musical animation
The guided tour consists of a 10-minute video that traces the history of the former Priory of Mimizan. Then, a slide show shows the sculptures and paintings in detail.
The rest of the visit takes place inside the bell tower-porch with the Trio A Funtana Affetuoso on the 6 slots of the day of 18 September.
Corsican polyphony a cappella
«In Funtana», is the story of three women who gathered around a deep love for Corsica, its culture, music and polyphony in particular, which they impregnated with passion to the source. They come together to serve these songs that upset them so much, for their ancestral character, generous, authentic, with pleasure, requirement and humility.
Corsican singing requires attention to others, intimacy, a look, a very intense listening. The freedom of ornamentation, the vibratory sensations and the combination of harmonics, components of the sound of the three voices, generate a powerful emotion.
