Trio Zukan - Soinuzko Begiradak - Take 2 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

With this album Soinuzko begiradak - TAKE 2, the members of the Zukan Trio continue to demonstrate that they are much more than three extraordinarily virtuoso musicians who approach contemporary music with rigour, energy and enthusiasm. None of them limit themselves to playing their own instruments, but act as multi-instrumentalists of infinite and interdisciplinary possibilities. This versatility and this common way of understanding sound and artistic career, without historical cushions and guided by an unwavering commitment to current creation, especially Spanish, makes them unique and difficult to imitate. And, for this reason, the Zukan Trio and the new paths they open for us will leave their mark on history. The project Soinuzko begiradak - TAKE 2 (Sonorous glances) was born at the same time as the Zukan Trio. The very instrumental nature of the group, made up of a txistu (a three-hole flute) (Jon Ansorena), an accordion (Maria Zubimendi) and a percussion (Gorka Catediano), made it necessary to develop an essential activity parallel to performance the search for composers who would contribute to the development of the ensemble's repertoire through a network of commissions. When the trio was founded in 2014, there was only one original piece written for txistu, accordion and percussion, Otxate, by David Cantalejo. Today, in 2023, the Soinuzko begiradak - TAKE 2 project has generated more than 40 compositions offering us as many unique visions of this unusual timbral combination.
