August musical tour

Mozart , Vivaldi eta abar...Genevako Antzokiko Balleta /budapesteko festival Orchestra / Euskadiko Orkestra sinfonikoa...
Andreas Prittwitz and Lookingback Septet eta Brillant Magnus Quintet taldeak...

Like every year, music lovers have a special quote at the Quincena Musical in San Sebastian. Despite the crisis, this festival maintains the usual quality levels, interesting proposals and the most attractive cycles for the public.

This year’s edition offers jewels such as the Don Giovanni opera by Mozart; performing the Ballet Tristan and Isolda of the Geneva Theatre; or the Budapest Festival Orchestra of orchestra stars and the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra. However, I am not going to go into the big cycles. A great deal will be said and written about these sessions. My attention will focus on some hidden treasures of the Fortnight that allow us to enjoy music and more things. The Aitzaki cycle has its motivation in the title. Music, being the center of these performances, is the way to get to know our people. This cycle is particularly juicy in this year’s edition. We will visit our coast: In Hondarribia, Zumaia, Mutriku, Deba, Orio, Getaria and Pasai San Pedro we find concerts and interesting activities in the program. I find it very attractive, for example, the August 20 tour from Deba to the Olatz district of Mutriku, to take the route of the Camino de Santiago along the coast of Gipuzkoa. Besides enjoying nature, the music will be the protagonist at different moments of the day.

Also curious will be the Zambra Baroque program to be offered on 10 August in the winery Hiruzta de Hondarribia, with the hand of Andreas Prittwitz and Lookingback Septet. We will have the opportunity to enjoy an innovative view of Baroque music, but if we add to that the dinner that will be held afterwards, it will undoubtedly become a global date.

The activities of the Fortnight will take place in several localities on the coast. But apart from that, we'll be able to visit other places. The Euskadi Symphony Orchestra will act in Senpere on 19 August to interpret works by Mozart and Vivaldi. We will continue with baroque music in the programme that will take place at the Monastery of Leyre, in charge of the group Brillant Magnus Quintet, on 20 August. On 25 August the '15' show of Armenian violinist Ara Malikian will arrive in Arantzazu, a fusion of classical music and arrangements of popular music. Don’t miss these unique opportunities.

Big in smallness -- small in greatness?

In February 2023, I read the news in the press and I was depressed because it surprised me and gave me what to think. The store of Jostaldi Kirolak Erdikale Street in Azpeitia will be closed to the public after 48 years of running.

That made me travel in time. I'd been there... [+]

Basque Country with three speeds

When we woke up, culturally and administratively, the landscape showed a three-speed disaster.

As far as culture is concerned, I had the opportunity – once again – to confirm this last November 14 at the Mint library in Ortzaize. There we met because Eñaut Etxamendi... [+]

Snow

Snow hides the earth and the traces of beings looking for pleasure. Under the beauty of snow there is time, years, generations, ephemerides, quotations; but when time goes by there are words that have not been said before or after. Snow reminds us that we could slip and fall. As... [+]


Ended with Palestine (and with the world)

The world has also done so, because it is a symbol, because in history more genocides have already been done and will be done (bad luck, hear, it has touched you to be born there), but Palestine has special characteristics:

  • A long time ago, at the end of the 19th century, it... [+]

Büxarik ez, mila esker

They appeared, as usual, through the hut, parked in the center of the passage, in herbs and encharcations so as not to dirty the mills, and went through the road, tracing, to the porch, with a large dish in the hand. As usual, the bûche was ready. In French bûche it can be a... [+]

How much is important?

As the fall ends, the crows appear on Basque Day, in the Basque era or in the Durango Fair. Aware of the results of socio-linguistic surveys on the use of Euskera, the "politically corrective" exercise has no longer drawn anyone's attention. Without Ttattarri, with cool and smiling... [+]


Technology
What does 2025 bring?

I've done a quick analysis of the technology forecasts for 2025. Like every year, when you talk about what technology is going to bring to the media in 2025, the discourse is very similar. Many of us who write about technology have the anxiety of knowing more than it's going to... [+]

The dreams of the long struggle, I really want you.
