Literatura eta musika euskaraz: Gari, Iñigo Astiz and Oier Larrañaga

The foyer of the Arriaga Theatre will host the debut of Gaizki moldatzen dira. This latest creation by Gari is an incognito as the artist himself wants it to be that way. In any case, Gari promises a “wonderful and very special” performance. It is what can be expected of this artist, an absolute reference on the Basque scene over the past 30 years and well known for his stint at the helm of the legendary band, Hertzainak.

Gari will count on the collaboration of Iñigo Astiz, journalist on the Berria daily newspaper, specialised in the field of Culture, who has become more involved with poetry in recent years. In 2012, he published “Baita hondakinak ere” (Susa, 2012) and the following year, he translated the works of Sylvia Plath, “Ariel & Other Poems” into Basque, under the title of “Ariel eta beste poema batzuk” (Denonartean, 2013). In 2014, he organised the “Hondakindegia, poesia emanaldi EZ musikatua” recital in conjunction with Mikel Aierbe. Now, he will add his voice and poetry to Gari’s latest this new stage treat: Gaizki moldatzen dira. To add melody to the show, Oier Larrañaga will play the piano live.
