November 1999

Joseba Tapia: diatonic accordion and voice.
Arkaitz Miner: violin.
Ritxi Salaberria: double bass.
Pascal Gaigné: acoustic guitar and arrangements.
Koldo Izagirre eta Itxaro Borda: translations.

Under the title, Québec, hamalau kantu independentziarako (Québec, 14 Songs of Independence), Tapia transports us to a little singing club, all with arrangements for live playing with violin, bass, guitar and Basque (diatonic) accordion. Joseba Tapia’s voice reflects the concerns of a people, their joys and their anguishes. The CD, the insert and everything come out in a very state-of-the-art format.
