The band has come up with an original concept for their multimedia show
where the stage is an inflatable igloo, complete with sound, lights,
and projections. It is an intimate show with only 55 places w dont la

Since
2004 Oreka Tx’s two “txalapartaris” (txalaparta players) have travelled
a great deal with their instrument – a focus for exchange and dialogue.
They have met nomadic people and musicians from the Sahara, Lapland,
India, and Mongolia. As a result of these travels, they have compiled
bewitching visual and musical material with a clear objective: sharing
this music, these sounds, these images, these experiences.
The
result is a documentary called “Nömadak Tx”, which has received awards
at the most important festivals all over the world. Oreka Tx has also
created a singular multimedia show : the musicians are present on stage
and on screen at the same time, and these images and sounds from around
the world act as backing to the live music!
Txalaparta
what is it ?
The txalaparta is a percussion instrument made of wooden beams and
played by two people who strike out the rhythm alternately. It is
unique in the world, in its shape and in the way it is played, and is
closely linked to the Basque cultural identity.
