Information about Traditional Music
While Maltese music today is largely western, traditional Maltese music includes what is known as "għana" (pronounced as aana). This consists of background folk guitar music, while two or three persons take it in turns to argue a point in a melodic voice. The lyrics tell stories of village life, with its wonderful personalities, and of events in local history. Today, you might chance across an impromptu Għana in a rural bar. It takes a number of years of practice to be able to combine the required artistic qualities with the ability to debate effectively.
Other types of traditional (more Western) songs are also available.
