Lingo rito tatato [Natos] : introduction to Sutartinės Lithuanian polyphonic songs + СD

Lithuania's polyphonic songs, the sutartinės constitute a unique manifestation of Lithuanian traditional music (the derivative of the word sutartines is the verb sutarti 'to agree', or 'to attune' with another person). Hymns recorded by group of sutartines singers „Trys Keturiose“ („Three by Four“) resound in the included CD. This is assistance for non-speakers of Lithuanian or people who do not read notes. They are able to learn a song directly from the recording. The author of this booklet entitled „Lingo Rito Tatato“ sincerely believes that hearing and singing the sutartines will not only familiarize people from other countries with the most archaic and most unique heritage of Lithuania's traditional music but will also prove to be an original means for improving skills for learning the Lithuanian language. Above all else, the sutartines will offer an unusual „key“ to open the door into the spiritual world of Lithuanians and their mentality.
