This set contains a book and 4 CDs. The text herein contains English, French and German. Palermo, full of history and tradition, a town full of markets, coffee-houses and joie de vivre. No other town was avoided as much as this one. It was once the Mafia's stronghold, a place of decline and chaos. Since then it has survived and got rid of its scars. The town has also been restored; reborn, we might say. 'Palermo' is the very image of Sicilian beauty: full of life and contradictions, and thus is also quite close to the spirit of the town. The CDs contains a well-balanced mix of traditional Sicilian folk music, different forms of tarantella tunes, from 'belle canzoni' to music from Luchino Visconti's 'The Leopard' as well as the opera 'Cavalleria Rusticana' in a recording with Maria Callas.
