The fable of the Blessed Women is well-known on the high plain of the Sette Comuni (seven communes) where the antique Cimbrian language is still alive. It tells of fairies who, in exchange for something to eat, give the women skeins of wool that go on forever. Here the fable is presented in an original musical version in Vicentine dialect and in Cimbrian.
