From Fermin Muguruza- NOLA

I was honored to produce and arrange this historical record by the great Basque musician and artist, Fermin Muguruza.  We finished in September. Below are videos from the record and from the tour in Spain and the Basque country, June 2016.

NOLA? (NOLA: New Orleans-Luisiana hiriburuaren laburbildura. Euskaraz eta galderazko ikurrarekin: nola?) IRUN MEETS NEW ORLEANS 10 urte Katrina eta gero, FERMIN MUGURUZA joan da NEW ORLEANSera eta bertako musikariekin bere ibilbideko 10 kantu grabatzen ditu eta dokumental bat zuzentzen du ere, non egitasmoaren protagonistek hurbiltzen gaituzten beraien errealitatera, hondamendia kontatzeko, nola komunitateak berreraiki egin zuen hiria, egun dituzten erronka berriak, eta musikaren ezinbesteko paperaz aritzeko, nortasun ikurra bezala, baita bizitza eta heriotza ospatzeko ere.

Canetti at Carnival

Canetti

Canetti

This was composed for the New Orleans Composers Orchestra in 2010.  The piece is in two parts: Feast of Thighs and The Power of Unmasking.   The piece was to integrate, in a light way, an awareness of forces that occur in crowds during a carnival (dark), the light, unself-conscious releases that occur at that time (light).
