Zubigainekoa is the name of a dance which is only performed in one specific small Basque village called Lesaka during annual San Fermin festival. Most of the recordings on this CD were made during two versions of the world famous fesitval of San Fermin: in the small township of Lesaka and in the city of Pamplona, which each year is in the world news because of the spectaculr encierros. During an encierro a group of bulls are driven through the fenced off streets of the town centre to the bullfighting arena. Numerous daredevils run in front of the animals. Every year some of these pamplonaos are trampled under foot by fellow participants or by the bulls themselves. The CD contains festive music played on flutes and shawns but also beautiful percussion music on the txalaparta, a Basque instrument consisting of large logs beaten with small sticks by two players in an interlocking rhythm..

In the past many Portuguese, mainly from the islands of Madeira and the Azores left their homeland and travelled to Hawai‘i, in seach of a better future. A part of the Portuguese traditions are kept alive in Hawai‘i by descendants of the Portuguese immigrants. A traditional festival which still lives both in Hawai‘i and in the Azores is the Holy Ghost Festival. Nowadays there are not many people left who still speak the Portuguese language and a lot of traditions have disappeared. Whereas immigrants from Madeira introduced the predecessor of the ‘ukulele in the past, the Hawaiian Portuguese themselves nowadays prefer to play the piano or some other keyboard. The CD presents a mixture of styles: remnants of Portuguese traditions in Hawai‘i, but also examples of authentic forms that still live on in the Azores and on the island of Madeira. The CD also contains a few beautiful examples of the Portuguese influence on the local music of Hawai‘i and other islands in the Pacific.
