Beginning in the 1680s, with a considerable delay when considered in relation to the principal theatrical venues of the Italian Peninsula, the capital of Savoy finally gave up its resistance, surrendered to the opera, and in 1740 went so far as to provide itself with a theater, the Teatro Regio, that was worthy of immortalization in the pages of the Encyclopédie and obtained the status of a magnet for illustrious travelers and visitors. During the mid-1760s Joseph-Jérôme de Lalande regarded it as »the most studied, the best composed, the most complete that we see in Italy…the most richly and nobly decorated that there is in the modern genre.« Some years later it seemed to Charles Burney to be »very large and elegant« and worthy of being regarded among the most beautiful in Europe.

Delving into the deepest recesses of raï, this compilation serves as a tribute to its roaring years, but also as a rejuvenation of the genre in its sulphurous, subterranean version. It seemed like a good idea to dig into nearly untraceable cassettes, thus confirming it’s in the oldest of Oranese pots that the very best of raï is to be found. Just 50 years ago, no one would have believed even a bit in a genre seemingly bound to forever turn round and round in its native Oran, laying low in one of its many coastal road clubs.
