“I want to make it clear that outside ‘normal’ there are many realities, all as legitimate as others.”

  • In the semi-finals of Donibane Garazi, which has been cold for many, Nerea Elustondo managed to leave his mark, making a different speech, idea and focus.
Nerea Elustondo, Donibane Garaziko saioaren ostean. Argazkia: Xenpelar Dokumentazio Zentroa.

Special programme in Garazi. Did you feel comfortable about the cake?

It was a bit sargori, actually, on the taboo. Nor do I know if the layout of the deck was the most appropriate, as in the previous part we had the wall. But in any case, I felt pretty comfortable about the haze.

You've been in the championship for a long time. What peculiarities have you seen this year?

It's been 21 years since my first championship. Since then, issues have changed, most bertsolaris and speeches. I'm talking about memory, but then I think we were six women in the first phase, and three in the final averages. We are currently in other figures. After all, both before and now, you have to put yourself in front of a microphone and make yourself gifted.

“Better be happy than being normal.” You've sung this and many other messages on Garazi. What do you want to convey to the public?

What we call "normality" today is nothing more than a set of social agreements that are finally built according to the interests of the capitalist system. Therefore, as built, it means that it can be modified. What I wanted to make people see is that outside of what we call "normal," there are many realities in our country, and they're all as legitimate as everyone else.

You sang that “in a word, it is all that society does not accept” along the way. Do you think it important to sing as bertsolaris those who are not accepted by society?

I think Bertsolarism is a loudspeaker, especially in the championship. On the same Saturday we were over 1,300 people, not to mention those who were going to be on the networks or on television. With more or less attention, many pairs of ears would be listening to what we said. I think bertsolari needs that social commitment and that savage look that you don't see with the usual look at the center. Beyond seeing, to focus the issue itself. I believe that what we do not see or feel often does not exist and we find it very difficult to accept what we believe does not exist.

QUESTION OF THE HOUSE

Looking forward to your championship this year, what flavor do you have the day after the competition?

With the funny I have a very sweet taste. I was at ease with the older zortziko, also in the zortziko txiki. We suffered a bit at the point. In general, with the work done in six points and in the loft, the spine was removed from having made two boats. I do not know to what extent it is politically nice to say, but I have the feeling that mistakes are not penalised more than achievements.
