Of the importance of Maurizio to today’s “txistularis”. Maurizio was the last “txistulari” who lived as “txistularis” used to in the old days. Maurizio, master of the tradition. Present-day “txistularis” use new musical models. |
| B04 | 00:13:06 00:22:06 |
When bands started playing in village “fiestas”, everybody catcalled them because they found them boring. Maurizio did not lose heart and carried on playing. Many dances have been maintained thanks to Maurizio. |

The speaker is Mariano Izeta. There was a “txistulari” in every village in Baztan about forty years ago. People danced close up in Elizondo and apart in the other villages. Twenty years ago, there was an “individual” dance competition (jota and purrusalda) in Elizondo. People mainly came from Gipuzkoa and Bizkaia. Maurizio and Félix were the “txistulari” and drummer for the competitors. They had to play more than sixty pieces. If there was somebody in the square who wanted to dance, then Maurizio did not stop playing. |
