X'Aħna Sbieħ Min Jaf Jarana, a Maltese song of the 1930s by C. Satariano, sung by Emmanuele Cilia.
Early in 193I, a group of musicians travelled from the port of Valletta, Malta, to Tunis, to record the very first records of Maltese music. What ensued was a social phenomenon, which took much of society by storm. This is the forgotten story of recording Maltese, folk and popular music in the interwar period.
A 60 page book with 30 tracks is now available. It's an intriguing account of musicians, composers, poets and songwriters who, contracted by the Valletta music agents, were sent to Milan and Tunis to record on the major record labels of the day, including HMV, Polyphon, Odeon and Pathé Records. Recorded music and gramophones became an attractive novelty, which played back local music and altered the Maltese people's perception of themselves forever.
These old songs have now been restored. Concept, production, research and story writing by Andrew Alamango.
This is one of 30 old Maltese songs available on two CDs. You can order them from here:
