Description
The conception of Lide ta Ixidor did not follow the usual characteristics of lyrical theatre close to the nationalist ideology: the allusion to lost freedoms, love of the Basque language, a legendary common past, an idyllic rural setting and the value of religion, which were relegated to the present work; although as an exception, it is set in a farmhouse near the Biscayan palace of Zubialdea and includes the birth of Jesus and the arrival of the Three Wise Men. At the premiere on 24 May 1910, the press, chroniclers and music critics included all kinds of laudatory adjectives.
The recording of this CD was made in the hall of the Bilbao Philharmonic Society, which celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2021 and through whose concert hall a large part of the city?s musical activity has taken place. The Basque National Orchestra has been the symphonic support for a simple and delicate work, frank, in which the melodies are presented in a direct and effective way.
