The Aosta Valley ( , , ) is a mountainous semi-autonomous region in north-western Italy. It is bordered by France to the west, Switzerland to the north and the region of Piedmont to the south and east.

With an area of 3263 km2 (1259.9 sqmi) and a population of about 130,000, it is the smallest, least populous, and least densely populated region of Italy. It is the only Italian region which has no provinces (the province of Aosta was dissolved in 1945). Provincial administrative functions are provided by the regional government. The region is divided into 74 comuni (communes).

The native population speak Valdôtain, a form of Franco-Provençal (Arpitan), as their first language, while in the Lys Valley there is a Walser German speaking minority. The regional capital is Aosta.

Per alcuni giorni danze e concerti si sono protratti fino a tarda notte, coinvolgendo sempre più il pubblico arrivato da ogni parte d'Europa ed oltre. Anche Giulia ha inevitabilmente scattato molte foto e "girato" brevi filmati, al fine di conservare il ricordo di una bella esperienza. Certamente la musica Celtica, e gli artisti che la propongono e la vivono, meritano una nostra maggior attenzione. Come di consueto ne ho ricavato un filmato per YouTube. ********** Between 9th and 12th July 2009, during the famous Celtic Music festival (now annual), performed in Italy, Aosta Valley (Courmayeur, Veny Valley, Peuterey Wood) and in the neighbouring places in France, my daughter Giulia was there to listen to the music and to see the different shows offered by Celtica. Giulia also took a few photos and movies, to remember that beautiful and <b>...</b>
