Four years after their first CD Oyfn Veg here is the second album of the band « Oyfn Veg ».

To the initial trio Isajoan with Anne Garcenot, Joëlle Garcenot and Isabelle Morelli have joined Roberto Graiff, tenor, and Jacques Fatus, bass and guitar.

This album features polyphonic songs for mixed voices. They have been recorded by professional soloists, and harmonized for a choir.
