Hire a txalaparta.
When marketing this service, we always make reference to the instrument, but logically, the service offered is the hiring of 2 txalapartaris who will hit the wooden planks with their makilas creating the famous rhythm of the txalaparta. In this sense, we recommend that you contact us so that we can start organizing the transportation and availability of our txalapartaris. We are sure that together we will be able to create a beautiful atmosphere based on traditional rhythms.
What does the hiring of a txalaparta include?
It all depends on the type of event and the needs of each client. In any case, the most common service usually consists of 3 acts or interventions where different pieces are played. Between these 3 acts, the txalapartaris explain what the txalaparta is, its origin and its characteristics.
Hire other instruments.
As we have already mentioned, we not only offer the possibility of hiring a txalaparta, instruments such as the trikitixa, the tambourine or the alboka can be a perfect complement for your event. We also have singers who travel around the towns and cities of Euskal Herria reciting the popular songs of the Basque people. Do not hesitate to contact us.
Hire an aurresku.
The dantzaris, are another essential element in any Basque event, in this sense, there are many companies and individuals who ask us to hire a dantzari and a txistulari to dance an aurresku in their event / celebration. Remember that you can hire only the dantzari and the txistulari for the aurresku or complement it with the hiring of other musicians. Do not hesitate to ask us anything.
