The Istituto Italiano is pleased to support the concert: Tenores de Aterúe Live at St. David’s Anglican, Toronto!
Tenores de Aterúe (Avery Book, Gideon Crevoshay, Carl Linich, and Doug Paisley) formed in 2008 to study and perform traditional songs from the Mediterranean island of Sardinia. The entrancing guttural sounds, overtones, and rhythmic precision of the traditional singing form called cantu a tenore led UNESCO to declare it a “Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” (2005.) The Tenores are the only ensemble outside of Sardinia that is dedicated to singing cantu a tenore. They have also studied and perform songs from the paghjella tradition, a highly improvised, impassioned song form from the island of Corisca. Over the years, the Tenores have been in-demand performers on stages throughout the US, Canada, and Sardinia. For more info visit: aterue.com
