The romantic "Palmira" with her arabesques airs, sounding at the Sala Karma (Pontevedra), last October 27, 2007.

Faltriqueira is an autonomous vocal project raised in Pontedeume (Galicia), which escapes from the rigid tradition and brings new life to songs collected from diverse latitudes, not only from their homeland.

The band personify the freshest of the scene emerging from the fountains of traditional music. Fusing poliphony with drumming and acoustic instruments.

After many years of hard work on the melodic tradition of the pandereteiras (tambourine women players), these four young singers have put together a collection of traditional tunes in a modern style where voices mix with synthesizers and fiddle, accordion, darboukas, txalapartas, cellos, guitar,....

Their most outstanding feature is the polyphonic arrangement of galician rural villages and of other places and latitude of the world (their melodies as opposed to the traditional monophonic singing of galician rural villages). Tunes like "Vamos dançar", "As sete mulheres do minho", "Agarrado de Brañas Verdes", "Fatou yo", "Canto libre", "Cantiga bailada", "Sae lúa", "Corpiño xeitoso", "Trobadores", "Queridiño", "Adios", "Ven bailar", or "Palmira" .... show very clearly the band's personal and innovative style.

  • what language is this?

  • this is galician language

  • can anyone tell me where to find the lyrics to this??

  • Heime de ir e non me vou

    Heime de ir e non me vou

    Eu non me podo apartar

    Do redor de quen estou

    Non te me poñas de costas

    Nin te poñas de través

    Ponte de cara dereita

    Que quero saber quen és

  • Eu non sei o que me deches

    Que non te podo olvidar

    De día no pensamento

    E de noite no soñar

    Na alma se me cravou

    A raíz do teu querer

    Mentres no mundo vivir

    Outro amor non hei de ter

  • I should leave but I don't go

    I should leave but I don't go

    I can't break apart

    from the one beside me

    Don't turn away

    don't turn your back,

    turn your face to me,

    I want to know who you are

  • You must have done something to me

    for I can't get you out of my mind

    Meither in my daily thoughts

    or my nightly dreams

    Yor loving has taken root

    deep down in my soul.

    As long as I live in this world,

    I won't have another love
