Se hizo de noche en la iglesia donde toco

​@@ALFITUWell, dark or not, it's an Alfonso masterpiece! I will try it on my own instrument 😁

¿Por qué lo dices?

​@@adriancamposirisarriporque sopla coronavairus

Yo soy el de la flauta, jajaja. Lo decías por no llevar mascarilla?

@@alfonsoiturriaamadoz9226 Pues sí. Pasarán los años y ni la música, ni el museo ,ni la flauta, ni el propio Teobaldo en calzoncillos podrán tapar la humillación y el absurdo de aceptar el pañal facial

Eskerrik asko. Mil Gracias

Barkatu hain berandu erantzuteagatik, ez nintzen konturatu. Flauta horiek Eugene Hilarionov egilearena dira (Kiev (Ukrania) baina orain noski Suizan dago. Aurki eta erosi daitezke bere flautak early music shop denda onlinen. Lehen gutxienez bai

Eskerrik askooo

Eskerrik asko. Tienes el apellido del txistulari más importante del las ultimas 6 décadas (Jose Ignacio Ansorena) y de su antecesor (su abuelo Isidro Ansorena)

@@ALFITU siii..algo investigué del tema. Gracias x responder. Soy enamorada de la cultura vasca.

CUNNINGHAM COLLECTION bildumakoa (eskoziar doinu herrikoi bat da)

Ados, eskerrik asko!

Es-son las mismas que las utilizadas en la primera pieza: flautas cons5ruidas por el ucraniano Eugene Ilarionov (modelos renacentistas de flautas de una mano), la larga en el tono de un silbote en Do y la corta en el tonovde un txistu en FA natural. Construidas integramente en madera de frutal (albaricoque)

The tune is from here in Britain, called "Never love thee more".

Marta, esker mila, me ha llegado muy adentro lo que me dices. No logro ponerte cara.

Acabo de descubrir este sitio y los comentarios que se han ido haciendo a mis videos. Un descubrimiento. Joder que hacha soy...Perdona. Dame un mail y te mando la transcripción

La original esta en la revista pero la coda final, la rearmonización y la guitarra la hicimos el guitarrista y yo para la ocasión a modo de apuntes que vete a buscar. Ya lo siento.

Because it is a traditional Basque flute with three holes, which is played in Euskal Herria (Navarra and the Basque Country). It has its origin in prehistory, but was perfected in the Middle Ages. It works with harmonics just like a trumpet or a horn, it has 3 pistons, the Txistu has 3 holes. It is that, a flute with three holes, more difficult to play than a recorder. The Txistu is usually in F or F#, and the Silbote (the one in the video, wich is a low txistu) is usually in C or Bb. In this case it is in C. It is a family of transposing instruments, and the Txistu is played with one hand(left hand if you are right handed). Often, with the right hand we play a tamboril. (drum). In Euskal Herria we play this instrument in a traditional way for all kinds of events: parties, dances, weddings, funerals... But also in music schools and in the conservatory, "cultured" music is made: contemporary, classical music... And much more.

@@inarlezaun There can't be many people from outside the Basque Country who play the txistu, but I am one of those few. I have huge admiration for the Basque players who have the dedication and musical expertise to produce music of this quality from what is, basically, a straightforward traditional tabor pipe. The humble origins of this remarkable instrument are what gives it such versatility, equally at home in traditional folk tunes and complex Baroque sonatas. In many ways, it is more difficult to play than my flutes, whistles and recorders, but I continue to improve as a player. Here in Scotland, there is nobody to teach me to play, which compounds the difficulty. I have to engage in my own research; there is nothing more challenging than endeavouring to teach oneself to play an unfamiliar musical instrument. It certainly draws comment, when I play with other local musicians!

@@marklammas2465 That is wonderful! I am amazed that someone from outside knows and practices it! I finished the professional degree and now I am studying the superior degree of interpretation of Txistu and composition, and I am delighted with the instrument. On my RUclips channel you can also find more videos of works for Txistu and new compositions. There are many positions to make the same notes (F#, D, C#...) each one comes in handy for a different circumstance, and it is important to know these details of the instrument to gain agility and versatility. Also with the Silbote (Low txistu) and the tamboril. Get on with it!

@@inarlezaun My txistu is a very old Keller one in F#, made of ebonite. I do need to get hold of one in F. I was thinking of getting one from Ezpela. The price doesn't seem too bad. I might as well get a poxpolin from them as well, and some assorted accessories at the same time. Their drums look very good, but a bit expensive. I should really get some kind of a drum and incorporate that into my playing. A simple inexpensive British tabor drum might well be adequate, but I do like the idea of the Basque ttun-ttun string drum (psalterium). It adds a strong harmonic dimension. I have a txirula in yew wood, made for me to my own specification by the gentleman who makes some of my whistles. Not easy to play!!

@@marklammas2465 That's amazing. After years of trying different luthiers and brands of Txistu, I highly recommend Ezpela. It has an incredible manufacturing quality and its instruments are perfect in tuning, strength, sound, dynamics... Everything is in its place.

Seconded!
