From this week’s Astero: Gaztemundu
Astero‘s weekly bulletin always brings interesting news related to the Basque Country and the Diaspora. This week, we will learn about the new edition of Gaztemundu.
Gaztemundu
The Counsel of the Basque Government approved the 2017 Gaztemundu Program this Tuesday. This year’s edition is scheduled for September 2-17, 2017, and is dedicated to traditional Basque Instruments.
Gaztemundu is a training program open to individuals between the ages of 18 and 35 who are members of recognized Basque clubs all over the world. Participants will be given the opportunity to learn about these instruments from expert professors, as well as meet musicians who play them. Over the two weeks, they will also travel, and learn more about the country of their ancestors.
Application information will be made available after it has been published in the Official Bulletin of the Basque Country. If you are interested in applying, please stay tuned to www.EuskalKultura.com as they will publish the criteria as soon as they are made available.
