This meticulously remastered 2022 collection, released on Alexandre Bak - Classical Music Reference Recording, is a testament to Canteloube's profound love and dedication to preserving the traditional songs of his homeland. Spanning nearly two hours, the album features 42 tracks, each a delicate blend of regional dialects and timeless melodies, performed with exquisite nuance by soprano Netania Davrath.
Canteloube, a master of orchestration, collected and set these folk songs, capturing the essence of rural life, love, and nature. The album is a journey through the heart of Auvergne, from the lively "Bourrées" dances to the tender lullabies like "Brezairola" and "Pour l'enfant."

Netania Davrath's rendition has been revered as the definitive interpretation of Canteloube's work since the 1960s. Her voice, both powerful and delicate, breathes life into each song, making this recording a cornerstone for any classical music enthusiast. Whether you're a seasoned fan of Canteloube or a newcomer to his music, this album is an essential addition to your collection, offering a profound and authentic experience of France's musical past.
