The concert in Banneux with the Choristes of January 8th was a big success. Almost 3000 tickets have been sold, and for a very good reason, because it was quite a big happening. Hereby I’ll show you already two videos of the concert.
The first video is the opening song of the concert, “Barbara Furtuna”, with a leading role for Loïc Taillebrest.
The second video shows one of the final songs of the concert, “Quì sin’à l’umanità”, with a leading role for Alain. But before he can start to sing there is first the splendid Jacky Locks who directs the game of whose applause will make the most noise: the one from the audience or from the Choristes. What a wonderful man is Jacky Locks!
Soon there will be more videos and photos from this concert on this website
Just received the New Year’s greetings from I Muvrini. Like a rainbow of languages. With it a wonderful video of: “A tè Corsica”, with the Choristes. Like a kind of foretaste of the coming concert next Sunday in Banneux. This was recorded on October 16th, in Amnéville, in northern France. First the wishes, and then the video….

2012 promises to be an exciting year for I Muvrini. Highlights will undoubtedly be the concert with the Choristes in Banneux next week and the concert in Paris on June 2nd. Jean-François and Alain could not say after the recent concerts if the last concert would be the closing of the Gioia-tour, or just the presentation of the new CD. For there is in any case a new album in the pipeline, and the band will start working on it now. Given the positive responses to the Giru concerts in which several new songs were presented, it promises to be a CD on which the Corsican roots will more resonate. However the appearance of the CD itself promises to be a thrilling climax. We will wait and hear!
One of the new songs of the last concerts was “A Zitellina”. It is a song about mother Bernardini, but she is depicted in such a way that she becomes a universal mother. In this video you can fairly well follow the text that was projected on the screen direct behind Jean-François.
I wish I Muvrini, and everybody who reads this message, a happy, prosperous and creative 2012!
I Muvrini sang in Tilburg on Monday, 28th of November. They were in exceptionally good voice. Besides beautiful polyphonic songs, they also sang classical songs but in an acoustic performance as “Ùn ti ne scurdà”, “Sarà”, “Alma”, and also….. “No woman, no cry”. Click hereto read the full story.
