TRIBUTE TO XALBADOR

He was a renowned “bertsolari” (Basque troubadour) from the house of Xalbador in Urepel, Nafarroa Beherea. His family and friends discuss the life of Xalbador and why his approach to creating “koblas” (verses) was very distinct
making him a true Basque poet.
The documentary is in Basque
