With the glow of the second Full Moon of the year, an ancestral symbol of renewal and growth, the Italian Fantasy Folk Rock band Corte di Lunas unveils the second step towards their new Album with the single “Il Desideri di Là.”
The song features lyrics entirely in Friulian language, expressing the band’s love for their roots and their desire to protect and share them with the world.
“Il Desideri di Là” is an anthem to the leap into the adventure and showcases all the characteristic elements of Corte di Lunas‘ sound: intricate polyphonic choirs, energetic hurdy-gurdy and flute melodies, and a solid rhythmic weave.
“There is no adventure without obstacles, no magic without risks.
This song is an invitation to challenge our boundaries and follow our fears, which often, if truly listened to, can clearly reveal what ignites our hearts and what is truly important to us.
Take a deep breath and get ready for the leap!“

Biography:
Corte di Lunas is a Fantasy Folk Rock band from Cervignano del Friuli, Italy.
After more than ten years of maturation, the band has refined a powerful enchantment that blends Folk and Rock, polyphonic choirs, medieval and metal influences, and, with a sprinkle of theatrical charm, casts the ultimate spell and brings the sung stories to life.
The live shows of Corte di Lunas are portals to a magical world, enchanting the audience with their mystical soundscapes and taking them on an emotional path full of mesmerizing ballads and wild dances.
With an entire grimoire of original songs both in English and Friulan, the regional dialect of its lands, Corte di Lunas has brought the love for its homeland to an international public.
The band has been invited to perform at some of the best Celtic and Fantasy festivals in Italy, such as Montelago Celtic Festival, Triskell Celtic Festival, Druidia, Folkest, Hobbiton and also performed for the world renown concert platform Sofar Sounds.
Corte di Lunas also appeared at the most important comic-con in Italy, the Lucca Comics and Games Festival and was also invited to play at the growing Rimini Comix.
In the latest Album, “Tales from the Brave Lands” (2020), the band, just like a bard of our times, waves the ancient folk tales of their region into song, letting the roots reach the surface and the voice of their ancestors whisper wisdom to the modern days. The work has been well received by the audience and the tastemakers, gaining the band a strong following and amassing more than 200k streams of Spotify.
In 2022 the band released the singles “Dance of Shadow and Light” and “Shine,” two songs which started a new music direction for Corte di Lunas, aimed to explore the deepest and most intimate areas of the human being, a theme that will be further developed in the upcoming full length album “Nemeya,” scheduled for release for early spring 2025.
