It's from the nineteenth century, and perhaps before that, that the country has opened up to many music masters and launeddas players who have proven capable of preserving and passing on a musical heritage to make the rest of the island envious.

Right in Villaputzu for several years, in August, the suggestive takes place Launeddas festival which attracts the greatest players and masters from all over the island.
