About the Album

Jar’a is a surprising album in which the prepared Sardinian guitar , without any overdubs, achieves the tonal range and sonic pressure of a post-rock ensemble. The suite in six movements brings together avant-garde and ancient traditional singing rituals, evoking wide open spaces, combining underground worlds and the most ancestral Sardinia. Jar’a is a concept album, with three-dimensional sound, in which Paolo Angeli expresses an innovative contemporary language, inlaying it with fragile, emotive vocals. Sùlu is the climax: avant-garde and ancient traditional singing rituals, evoking wide open spaces, combining underground worlds and the ancestral 'Cantu a Tenore'.
