paschtaschutta (dialectal for pasta asciutta ) is the fifth studio album of the South Tyrolean folk band Titlá and, after the project Titlá & do Goiapui, their fourth solo album. It was released by ELCH music in 2013, three years after the last album was released .

background

The album was recorded in late July 2013 and was released on November 25th of that year. In contrast to the previous albums, no original compositions are included, while the traditional songs and pieces of music no longer only come from the Tyrolean region, Carinthia or Bavaria, but also from northern Italy. For the first time, Italian and Ladin songs can be heard, which is why the booklet is completely bilingual (in the South Tyrolean dialect and in Italian). This new cultural influence is also shown by the title pashtashutta (dialectal pronunciation of the Italian food pasta asciutta ), and spaghetti is shown on the cover to match .

Like the previous albums , pashtashutta was created with the support of the South Tyrolean provincial government .

Contents and special features

With only two exceptions, the 15 tracks on the album are traditional pieces and songs.

Songs

The song Fratelli (Italian for “brothers”) comes from the French group Bratsch, who are friends with Titlá, and was written by their accordionist François Castiello. Liab i di, kriag i di (“I love you, I'll get you”) was written by Kurt Muthspiel .

The love song Loss mi ba dir sein ("Let me be with you") comes from the Lower Inn Valley . In Preparém di un letto caldo (dialect for Preparatemi un letto caldo , "Make me a bed nice and warm") is, to an erotic song from the Val Seriana in the province of Bergamo . The origin of the love song Bleib mo grot amol (“Just stay with me for a moment”) is not exactly clear; Titlá refer to a recording from East Tyrol .

O bela mia roda (“Oh my beautiful spinning wheel”) is the only Ladin song on the album. There is a "Spinning Song" from the Val Badia . Another spinning song is Spinnradl ("Spinnrad"); it deals with the furnishing of the spinning houses , which used to offer work to the poor for small earnings. This song is common all over Tyrol.

Instrumental pieces

A monfrina is a dance in fast 6/8 time . Several of them are included on the album: The Monfrina dei Ceresa comes from the repertoire of the host family Ceresa from Cerentino ( Ticino ); They combine Titlá with the Irish pub piece Sackow's Jig . In Tyrol, too, there were 6/8 dances, which were called Monfrin or Movrin , but which were later renamed to rifle marches ; the album contains the Schwögl March from Hall in Tirol (around 1850), combined with the Courenta dei Butei from Piedmont . The fast Monfrina No. 44 comes from a handwritten music book by Giuseppe Perani and Andreino Cattaneo from Casnigo ( Bergamo province ) . The Monfrina di Val Caffaro finally comes from the repertoire of the Orchestrina Carnevale from Ponte Caffaro (province of Brescia ).

The piece Scottisc di Leffe comes from the repertoire of the carillon player Bernardo Pezzoli in Leffe (Bergamo province). Scottisc del Monge goes back to the miller of Bidogno , called "Monge", from the Capriasca Valley (Ticino); Titla combine the piece with the Lavandina from Zorzone (Bergamo province). The Burgo Polka is a well-known piece from the Sciliar area , combined on the album with the upholstery dance from Tarvisio in the Canal Valley . The Polca di Ernesto is a shawm piece from the Italian pre-Alpine region of the Quattro Province ( Alessandria , Genoa , Pavia , Piacenza ), with Titlá playing the popular hit Papaveri e papere by Nilla Pizzi (both in the original and in the German version Only the big animals eat the sweetest fruits ).

reception

Like the previous albums, the album received good reviews.

Georg Mair wrote in the weekly magazine ff that the CD was “a musical research journey”, “very multi-faceted”, “traditional and lively” and shaped “by the contamination, by a search that cannot be narrowed down to rigid traditions or provincial borders”. It is also good for "dancing" and "listening to it several times". The 15 titles are "precious items that often slumbered in archives" and "shine as if they were new."
