Incanti (2003)

"Elena Ledda is arguably Sardinia's finest traditional singer, her voice like water over stones, silky and rippling. Ledda possesses an operatic soprano's control and range, with the added benefit of the plaintive mellisma that makes the ancient vocal music of Sardinia so passionate and unforgettable. Ledda's repertoire is based on traditional songs that Ledda herself researched in the hillside farming villages of Sardinia, but the skillful arrangements by guitar and mandolin player Mauro Palmas are anything but old-fashioned. Each song exhibits a distinct personality." (RootsWorld)
