Muziek Cantata
Muziek Cantata
17 mei 2024
Het stuk Cantata, onderdeel van ons SPRING programma, wordt live begeleid door de dynamische Zuid-Italiaanse zanggroep Assurd. Dit ensemble houdt sinds de oprichting in 1993 de traditionele zang en muziek uit het zuiden van Italië in leven. De groep werd opgericht door drie vrouwen: Cristina Vetrone, Lorella Monti en Enza Alessandra Prestia. In 1999 werd de groep een kwartet met de komst van Enza Pagliara. Sinds enkele jaren maken Enza Alessandra Prestia en Enza Pagliara geen deel meer uit van Assurd, maar de vrouwen blijven wel samenwerken voor de internationale opvoeringen van Cantata.
Heb je je ooit afgevraagd waarover ze zingen? Wij hebben het voor je geregeld. Lees hieronder de vertaling van het oorspronkelijke Zuid-Italiaanse dialect naar het Engels.
Assurd creëert een unieke en authentieke muzikale ervaring. Hun werk behoudt niet alleen het culturele erfgoed van Zuid-Italië, maar brengt het ook tot leven voor hedendaagse luisteraars. De zangeressen laten zich voor hun manier van zingen inspireren door de zangers van weleer. De muziek vindt zijn oorsprong in eeuwenoude plattelandstradities die van generatie op generatie is doorgegeven. Door de krachtige combinatie van muzikaal talent en de kleurrijke harmonieën is de symbolische betekenis van culturele en emotionele waarden altijd voelbaar. Elke vrouw heeft haar eigen stemgeluid. Het is een muzikale reis langs de streken waarin ze opgroeiden, met gepassioneerde ritmen van de Napolitaanse tarantella, wilde pizzica uit Salento en warme Zuid-Amerikaanse klanken. Dit alles wordt extra kracht bijgezet door het gebruik van originele instrumenten, zoals castagnetten, tammorra’s, tamboerijnen, trommels en accordeons. Assurd speelt altijd live, behalve op 2 en 3 mei.

Quista è la notte de rubbà le donne
Ci rubba donne nu se chiama latru
Se chiama giovanottu nnamuratu
E non aggiu vistu mai sole te notte
Mancu ricotta quajare senza latte
E l’amore vecchiu quandu se bbanduna
E cu na girata d’occhiu se rinnova
E l’amore nu se face nu la sapia
Ca te tene ferma com una tenaja
E la donna ca te amanti ne tene doi
La viti sempre allegra e mara mai
E vivi ci balla moi vivi ci balla
Sta balla lu palumma e nu cardillu
E t’aggiu dare nu baciu getta focu
Cu te lu tieni te ricordu miu

Tango and Go
At Aunt Teresa’s Cellar
We Find Good Wine
We drink it in the morning
And It Refreshes Our Intestines
We Drink It At Midday
And push away bad thoughts
We drink it at eight in the evening
We Don’t Get Cholera
We drink it at midnight,
Another barrel is over
We drink it all year round
And We Forget All The Troubles
The Troubles of Life, When There is No Work
The Troubles of Children, Which Are Always Small
They piss underneath each other
They piss underneath each other
They’re pissing themselves, another beating is over
And vote and go around, we don’t have enough money
And go around and vote, let’s talk about it another time
The Improvised Cantatas
The improvised cantatas
They are the best and favorites
The most beautiful lovers
I had them, do you believe me?
Heart to heart, face to face
Without even knowing the name
I held him in my arms
My goodness, what a burning fire
That gets in my veins
It wasn’t even boiling water
My heart I love you
I don’t know about you, but who are you?
Even you don’t know who I am
You fell into these eyes
And I’m falling too
Under the moon, hand by hand (little by little)
We kiss and hold each other
Like volcano lava
We get on fire and then we boil
And who are you? But what do I care
I don’t care to know
Who am I? What do you care?
I want you and come come!
Do you want to know if who touches you
It’s Concetta or Mariannina
I tell you in your mouth
In Mergellina’s ear
You want to know? But what do I care?
If you are Giuseppe or Salvatore
Whether the dress is short or long
Go by car or tractor
I want you and so do you
Tell me sweetly that you want me
Now that we’re face to face
Do whatever you want to me
Now let’s think about this night
To the love we feel
Then we think about the condemned
But for now, who we are we are
Dundudurudu….
You are a sip of fresh water
Without name and identity
Take off the silk, it refreshes you
Only you can give it
Under the moon, under the sun
You have to give me this sip
That I am beautiful and I am a daughter and
I want to have fun with you
Says people who are alone
You warm me up like this
And not even heart to heart
These torments must be said
You warm my heart
Console me face to face
How the sun is born and dies
You are born and you die too
Women Women
Women women who go to pick tobacco
You go two and come back four
Women women who go to collect olives
Collect where there are many and where there are few
Women women who went to pick tobacco
The company does not give you the frames
Women, women who go to harvest the grapes
And under the stump of the vine you get fooled
And my holy Paul of the tarante
You pinch girls and make them saints
Sunflower
Receive this warmth
As long as it’s day
Because you are a sunflower
That without the sun dies
You dressed in yellow
to take away the pain,
But black deceived you
Alone, alone, alone
Sun, sun, sun
Never again
Alone, alone, alone!
Alone
Sun, Sun, Sun
Walls, wall, walls
Sea, Sea, Sea
Never again
Walls, wall, walls
Alone
Sea, Sea, Sea
Like a flood
I only want to see water,
This flower wants to live
without wanting to understand
Receive this warmth as long as it is day
Because you are a sunflower
In search of happiness
This My Heart
With this bitter voice I sing the pain of this land of mine
With this dark voice I sing the warmth of these ancient people
My people go far to seek their fortune
And This This Luck Is Sweet Because He Was Born Carbon Black
And then when the stars 1000 by 1000 greet this heart
Words of Love, Sweet Words Sung Softly
And When Then The Stars 1000 By 1000 Laugh In The Sky
It seems that Heaven comes down like a cloak and consoles me
And with this dark voice I sing the color of my land
This abandoned land is black land made of lava and sea
My Sick Heart Looking Only for Beauty and Love
Because Only Love Can Cure This Illness of Mine
And When Then The Stars To Me 1000 Shine In The Sky
They bring back torment to me and this torment is an ancient pain
And When Then The Stars 1000 By 1000 Laugh In The Sky
It seems that Heaven comes down like a cloak and consoles me.
This smell
When I See The Light In The Middle Of The Sea
I Know That Hope Can Never End
The Hope of Finding That Smell
That smell that made me fall in love
You Are Carrying My Pain
Your Strength Is Mine Too
We are like the wings of a dove
Only by holding tight can we fly
It pinches
The darkness of the night is coming
This is the night when women are stolen
He who steals women is not called a thief
It’s called young man in love
And I have never seen sun at night
Not even quail ricotta without milk
And old love when it abandons itself
With the blink of an eye it is renewed
And you don’t make love, I didn’t know that
That holds you in place like pincers
And the woman who has two lovers
You always see her happy and never sad
And long live those who dance now, long live those who dance
He is dancing the palomma and the cardillo
I have to give you a fire-throwing kiss
So you’ll keep it as a memory of me
