Thank you, thank you for posting this! When and where was this concert?

[kingssingers]

2002, Salt Lake City with the MoTab, during the Winter Olympics!

Abal dins lo Lemosin, pitiota

Si y a de gentas drollas...

It's a french version but the original is in lemosin (north occitan) not in french.

Vive le Limousin !

I find myself once again swaying in my chair, it is impossible to sit still, this is FABULOUS I adore the The King singers.. and have done since the late 70's.. Marvellous as is the norm, with these fantastic fellows..

Keep singing gents we will listen in awe and applaud ... :0)X

...You can hear the string instruments.

En effet, c'est plutôt de l'auvergnat au départ.

Du français d'oc en tout cas !

Les paroles n'ont pas trop d'importance. Un moyen mnémotechnique pour se souvenir de la mélodie de la danse : une bourrée à trois temps.

Je l'ai chanté en bal, sympa

It's not a french song but an occitan one

[Auxane]

Normally this is an Auvergnat song written in the Auvergnat dialect of Occitan about nearby Limousin... We like to pretend we don't like them but actually we're closer to the Limousins than any other of our Occitan bros... ;-P

The closest I got to levitating this side of the yoga school.

Of all the hundreds of pieces the King's Singers know, this is my favorite - and that was just from listening to their acapella arrangement. I never knew I could have heard them with accompaniment from an orchestra. This is glorious!! Thank you so much for posting this on YouTube, and thank you for giving the King's Singers a wider audience that they've always deserved!

Pour chipoter aimablement, je me permettrai d'ajouter qu'il s'agit plutôt d'auvergnat que de limousin, J. Canteloube ayant écrit ses textes en patois de Vic sur Cère (je n'en suis plus trop sûr non plus), mais la distinction n'est que chauvine et symbolique, les deux idiomes nord-occitans étant très très proches ;-)
