Iaiaiai Irrintzi

What is the ‘irrintzi’ in the 21st century? A communication tool? A changing symbol of identity within the Basque culture? The scream that connects us to our ancestors? A non-verbal language? A creative tool for exploring tradition and the contemporary world? Where does the ‘irrintzi’ come from?

The Iaiaiai group offers a fresh perspective on the irrintzi. This group from Aiaraldea has carried out an artistic and anthropological study of the Basque irrintzi. Iaiaiai will present a performance in the Hall of Baluarte that fuses sound, the body and space.
