La banda de gaitas Xarabal - Bagpipe Folklore Group from Galicia Spain

Performance of a bagpipe ensemble "La banda de gaitas Xarabal" at Festival du Houblon, Haguenau, France on 21/8/3015 The translation of gaitas means pipes. The group: The banda gaita Xarabal was created in the University of Vigo in 1984 as a complementary activity to that of factory Galician traditional instruments. Initially, an educational group had been established with the objective to make traditional music with instruments made in the factory of the University for seminars and courses on the Galician music. Interest in the band's music was such that it was decided to create the banda de bagpipes in 1984. The great figures of the Galician music have supported this project, incorporating their best students in the banda such as Carlos Nunez, Anxo Pintos Xavier Abad ... The banda was given the name "Xarabal" which means "school of fish in front of a danger" (peixes ante grupo a perigro). For this metaphor, the musicians emphasize that traditional Galician music is endangered and it is difficult to keep alive in the contemporary world. The objective of the banda is clear: to revive traditional music while opening up to other musical cultures (Latin American, Classical) for the Galician heritage reborn in the present, but also continues in the future. Thus are introduced in performances of contemporary instruments such as synthesizer or Latino-American percussion (congas, bongos, etc.). The repertoire of banda consists of both traditional pieces and compositions (Nazario Gonzalez, Xosé Manuel Budino, Ernesto Campos). Over its 31 years of existence, the banda has completed several discographic recording projects and has participated in many festivals internationally, including the Inter-Celtic Festival of Lorient. The cultural association also gives Galician culture workshops (music, cuisine, etc.)
