Turlutte acadienne montréalaise - Sirens

By Canadian composer Marie-Claire Saindon "Turlutte acadienne montréalaise" captures the traditional Acadian and Québécois musical practice of the "turlutte" or mouth reel. Voices mimic fiddle reel melodies, while adding foot percussion or "podorythmie" in this lively piece. Mouth music has been a staple at kitchen parties across Atlantic Canada's Acadian communities for generations.
Filmed at the historic Glenaladale House in Mount Stewart, Prince Edward Island, "Turlutte acadienne montréalaise" is imagined by Sirens through the
artistic vision of award-winning Island filmmaker, Millefiore Clarke.
You'll find "Turlutte acadienne montréalaise" on Sirens’ debut album, Boundless, released in 2020.
