Recordist's notes
The shepherds slowly lead goats and sheep towards the Nivolet hill, stopping in the meadows of the villages along the way. For days, the houses are filled with sounds: the rhythmic tinkling of the bells hanging from the animals' necks, their bleating and if you get close, you can also hear the buzz of the grass being slowly torn from the meadows. / I pastori conducono lentamente capre e pecore verso il colle del Nivolet, fermandosi nei prati dei paesi lungo il cammino. Per giorni, le case si riempiono di suoni: il tintinnio ritmico dei campanacci appesi al collo degli animali, i loro belati e, se ti avvicini, puoi sentire anche il fruscio dell’erba strappata piano piano dai prati.
