Concert in Sestao
February/24/2006 22:51
This year,
2006, the Orfeón choir of Sestao is celebrating its
100th anniversary, and has invited our choir to give
a concert in Sestao as part of the commemorative
events it has organised. The concert will take place
on February 24, in the Church of “Los
Frailes”, at 8pm. The Biotz Alai will use the
opportunity to take a journey through its
discography, performing songs from the six CDs the
choir has recorded, and offering selections from all
its work over recent years. As well as the more
established “classics” from the Biotz
Alai repertoire, such as Goizeko Izarra, Boga-boga
and Katalin, the audience will be able to hear works
such as Ach Fraulein Zart, Sind Surmani and
Beethoven’s Adagio. In addition the choir will
perform two works which they premiered with great
success at their members’ concert on January 7
of this year, namely Maite Miña, by Glz.Bastida, and
a harmonization of the Agur Jaunak, by Tomás Garbizu,
accompanied by piano and a group of
“txistularis”.
Our choir regards this concert with a great deal of interest and affection, all the more because the Orfeón of Sestao and the Biotz Alai have always maintained a deep friendship which has survived the years and the different singers who have performed in the two choirs.
