Thanks--I thought it might be something like that. I had even checked Google
Translate & Babelfish using Catalan as the source language, but got no
results. The choir's web site uses "Blauets" and explains that the name came
from their blue uniforms. I expect you're right about Catalan, and that the
word has been "standardised" to Blauets since the issue of the album.
