The legendary bertsolari, Xalbador, is an inspiration to current bertsolaris and the subject of the film “Xalbador, Izana eta Izena.” This film is an intimate portrayal of his life story through his children, friends and his bertsos.

A side note: This past March the BEO was a proud sponsor of the North American Basque Organization’s Bertsolari Special Tribute, where U.S.-based bertsolaris were honored for their lifetime of service to the Basque community.
