While visiting friends in Palermo I was handed a tape by Palermo group Agricantus. I’d never heard of them nor had I ever heard any of their music. I fell in love with the rich sound immediately. When I got back to Milan I scoured the record shops for CDs and was able to pick up a pretty good one of them in concert, which I seem to have misplaced somewhere. That’s one of the annoying things about moving around a lot – you tend to lose track of your CDs if you aren’t very careful.
In any case I decided to treat myself to some replacement CDs over Christmas and Agricantus was on the top of my list. The CD finally turned up this morning, so I spent lunchtime and most of this evening listening to it.
If you want to get a “feel” for their music try their official site. There are some samples in the section “Audio/Video”
I’m currently listening to this album:

If anyone is feeling generous it’s my birthday soon
