A solo piece – Ish Nje Dit
This is an Arbresche song, the language is a mix of the dialect of the South of Italy and Albanian born as the result of the Albanian diaspora in the XV century. A very particular melody that gave me inspiration for this performance that slowly brings to the melody itself.
There are some little mistakes in the lyrics but I decided to leave them as they are, following the logic of orality, where songs are transforming with the the oral transmission also through mistakes and misspelling.

There are some little mistakes in the melody but I decided to leave it anyway cause I want it to be real and follow the logic of the orality, where songs are transforming with the the oral transmission.
