The singers, above the heart, were "pounding the walls of the church," explains a woman excited from the Àssua valley. Who were these singers from Pallars? How do they sing? The book you hold in your hands have these songs andl wants to know their protagonists: the singers. Following the oral report and the recordings we approach the half-figure of the singer gender, age and social status that brings out the song. We could say that six or seven decades ago, the act of singing and made her feel organized social life. And the songs, beyond ritual and religious significance, were used the expression and emotion for many people. The text is presented in Catalan and English and is accompanied by a DVD documentary Cants religiosos tradicionals a l’Alt Pirineu by Aleix Gallardet.
