Bordeaux, France.  The Eskualdunen Biltzarra Basque club in Bordeaux will host a day focusing on Basque emigration on November 25.  The events will begin at noon with lunch, followed by the show, “Aita eta Ama maiteak.”

Musicians Mixel Etxekopar, Jean Christian Galtxetaburu and Cecile Tison are the creators of the poetic-musical show, “Aita eta Ama maiteak.”  These words, “Dear Mom and Dad,” were used by many Basques on letters that they wrote from Argentina to their families in the Basque Country.  During the show, the musicians will read several of these letters written in the XIX century, that were part of the Euskaldunen Argentina exhibit organized by the Basque Cultural Institute – Euskal Kultur Erakundea.

Mixel Etxekopar from Xiberua and singer from the Landes, Cecile Tison give the show voice, accompanied by the accordion and voice of Jean Christian Galtxetaburu.

The Price of the meal prior to the show is 20 Euros for adults and 10 for children.  The show is free and open to the public.  For more information write an email to Eskual Etxea of Bordeaux.
