Madama, New Galician Folk CD by Leilía   
05/10/2003 01:00AM
Contributed by: ARomero

New CDsA Coruña, Galicia, Spain - Leilía, the innovative Galician folk group has released a new recording titled Madama. Leilía is the old name given to traditional songs. Leilía is a group of Galician women who are forerunners and makers of the mini-revolution of tambourine music which has spread all over Galicia. They got together in the summer of 1989 to recover songs and musical forms that were in danger of extinction. Leilía reproduced and learned it all from the elders they visited all over Galicia and surrounding regions, recovering traditions they thought lost. The group is formed by Montse Rivera, Mercedes Rodríguez, Felisa Segade, Ana María Rodríguez and Patricia Segade.
