Battista Concert
An artist alone on stage. In a moment out of time, song after song, the voice draws different
pictures. Battista plays her Cetera, or piano, a singular traditional corsican instrument, and
sometimes she sings « a cappella » from Corsica to heaven, and passing through some moments
in Armenia, Bulgaria or an arabic song, learned from her authentic Corsican culture encountering
others in festivals or beautiful lands.
