La Serpenta Canta

Description:
'La Serpenta Canta' aka The Serpent Sings, is a song recital recruiting blues, R&B, Motown, southern soul, Country & Western and DIAMANDA GALAS' own "Baby's Insane" (from 'This Sporting Life', her duo album with JOHN PAUL JONES).
The songs are rendered in her own inimitable style spanning Eastern Orthodox liturgy, American roots and the rembetika songs of Greece and Asia Minor.
This set is sung by Galás accompanying herself on piano and is a collection of live recordings from around the world between May 1999 and November 2002.
"My voice," she says, "was given to me as an instrument of inspiration for my friends, and a tool of torture and destruction to my enemies. An instrument of truth." With its much-touted three and a half octave range, Galás' voice is the most powerful weapon in her self-designed musical armoury.
