Cie Montanaro create "New Traditional Music", breathing new life into sundry musical traditions, and producing something fantastically vital. "Otramar" contains previously-released(?) discs drawing on musical traditions from Colombia, France, India, etc. The set came to my attention by winning a Coup de Coeur from the Academie Charles Cros in 2007.
If you'd rather get a single disc than stump for the whole set, check out "L'Ora Daurada"... discs (and sound samples) available at fnac.
