    The classification by genres was quick and dirty, and maybe it doesn't help a lot. I find it confusing myself.

    Would you order the list in another way?

    what's catalan doing here?
    it's the dominating language in its region and is not endangered at all ;)

    We have Catalan here as a "Potentially Endangered Language".

    The criteria we use to decide that a language is potentially endangered is "It has to compete with a stronger language in it's main territory" (See more: Diglossia).



    Although Catalan is the Official Language of Andorra, it has to compete with, and has less legal recognition that Spanish in the "Principat de Catalunya", the situation is worse in "Valencia" and "Balears", and has absolutelly no legal recognition in Catalunya del Nord (Currently France).

    Although I wish that all languages in this group were as strong as Catalan, it's good health shouldn't make us forget that Catalan is still a minorized language under strong pressure.

  • Ask for catalan status in Alguer (Sardinia) or Perpinyà. It's in danger without discussion

    tartalo I see that you had order the list very well. Congratulations!

    I write to recommend a new group that I known few weeks ago; La Pegatina

    This group is from "Moncada i Reixac" (Barcelona) and some of their songs are in catalan, well... only 2 :(
    Style -> rumba catalana (catalan rumba)

    You can download the cd at their web

    Songs in catalan:
    01 Penja't
    09 I digueu

    I love this group, very happy music :D

    EDIT: Track "O Camareiro" is in galician. I like this song a lot 'cause I have galician roots (like one of the group La Pegatina).

    Ops, then congratulations to Tyler Durden.

    Where are you from? Do you speak catalan?

    Els quatre discos de l'any passat son recopilatoris on hi participen. "Al carrer!" es el seu primer disc.

    Chapurreu Català mes aviat. Soc de la terra que ha donat gent tan il·lustre com Joan Sebastian Elkano, Jorge Oteiza, o Carlos Iturgaiz.
