26 Jun 98 - 08:17 PM (#31473) Subject: RE: Bella Ciao - WAV Files From: Ferrara Two versions of Bella Ciao, words and music, are given in Jan/Feb 1971 SING OUT! (vol. 20, No. 3), if you can get hold of it. One is almost identical to the version Ezio typed. The other is a woman's work song, sung by the rice workers in the Po Valley in Northern Italy. The article says the movie "Bitter Rice" is a good portrayal of those women's lives. Here is the song. I don't know whether it was earlier or later than the partisans' song, I suspect later. I also wonder whether there was originally a love song to the same tune? Ezio, (or anyone), please correct any errors in the translation. It's singable, more or less, which meant I took a couple of small liberties.
Alla mattina, appena alzata,
In early morning, we've hardly wakened, (Same pattern for the rest of the song:)
E tra gli insetti e le zanzare, ...
And mid the insects and the mosquitoes ...
IL Capo in piedi col suo bastone, ...
The boss stands upright, holding his truncheon ...
O mamma mia, o che tormento, ...
My dearest mother, this life is torture ...
Ma verra' un giorno che tutte quante
But a day is coming when all together

27 Jun 98 - 02:09 AM (#31481) Subject: RE: Bella Ciao - WAV Files From: Ezio Thank you Ferrara for posting this version of the rice-pickers. I didn't know it. The rice-picker women's song is certainly older that the partisan's one. The partisans re-wrote it with different words on the same tune. It got a wide popularity as partisan's song during the 2nd WW. By the way, after the war period the rice-picker job began to die and by the '60 the picker-women disappeared. Ciao Ezio |

04 Apr 00 - 05:21 AM (#206410) Subject: RE: Bella Ciao - WAV Files From: Escamillo Ezio, if you know where to find a MIDI piano version of CORE 'NGRATO, please tell me. I like to practice singing with midis before taking my teacher's time to play the accompaniment. I do have several midis of Neapolitan songs but not this one. One hour navigating Italian sites and no luck ! Thank you for any help you may give. Un abrazo - Andrés (Buenos Aires, Argentina) |
