Rosario, Argentina. Fr. Pascual Barturen Uriarte, musician originally from Bakio, Bizkaia, will cross the Atlantic again to join his friends and audiences in Argentina and Chile. This trip, from September 15-October 5th, will include concerts organized by Basque clubs at churches or temples that have a pipe organ. If interested in hosting a concert, please contact Luis Maria Barrandeguy in Rosario (see his address at the bottom). The concert repertoire will include the works of seven Basque composers from the Baroque period, specifically:
-Joaquín de Oxinaga: ‘Sonata de 5º tono’, ‘Ofertorio’ y ‘Gran fuga (con dos sujetos)’
-Manuel de Gamarra: ‘Sonata de 4º tono’
-José Larrañaga: ‘La Valenciana’
-Fernando Eguiguren: ‘Concierto Airoso’
-Juan Andrés Lonbide: ‘Sonata de 5º tono punto alto’
-Manuel de Sostoa: ‘Allegro’
-José Bautista de Bidaurre: ‘Sonata en sol mayor’
Basque clubs or associations in Argentina and Chile who would like to host a concert in their city should contact Luis Maria Barrandeguy here at the Zazpirak Bat Basque Club in Rosario who will communicate with Barturen to put together the tour program. It is imperative that a pipe organ be available for the concerts, and so churches and temples are recommended venues.
This is not Fr. Barturen’s first visit to the Southern Cone. He has also toured the area in 2013 and 2015, when he performed in Rosario, Pergamino, Posadas and Gualeguaychú.
