On November 17, 2023, at 6 p.m., the latest edition of the series Nuevas Tonadas (New Tunes) will be presented at the Diputación Provincial de Zaragoza. The Banda de Gaitas de Boto Aragonesas has been publishing since 2011 this collection in order to encourage the creation of new repertoires for this traditional instrument or musical formations in which it intervenes.
In this tenth edition the authors of the melodies are the bagpipers José Manuel Alba and Arantxa C. Hernando, both members of the Aragonese folk metal group Lurte.
Congratulations to the Banda de Gaitas de Boto Aragonesas for maintaining this initiative that aims to renew the existing musical repertoire for this instrument and disseminate it among young and not so young fans of musical folklore and the folk and traditional music of Aragon.
