Juan Jos\u00e9 de Mur Bernad,<\/strong><\/span> in addition to his extensive work as a musician, musicologist and composer, has the merit of being the great compiler, conservator and promoter of the traditional music of the Alto Arag\u00f3n. In 1970 he published the\u00a0Altoaragonese Songbook<\/em>,<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0which contained a hundred traditional folk songs from the Alto Arag\u00f3n transcribed in music and harmonized by himself. In 1986 he published the Popular Songbook of the Province of Huesca<\/em>,<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0an extensive work that has been the reference of scholars and interpreters of folklore in the province for more than 30 years. As if this were not enough, in 2015 he enlarges his first ethnomusical work with the publication of the Popular altoaragonese songbook<\/em>,<\/strong><\/span> containing the musical and, where appropriate, literary transcription of 452 popular melodies from Alto Arag\u00f3n. This gigantic documentary work has been the source from which scholars, curious, researchers and musicians, Aragonese and from abroad, have drunk, and it has been the path through which we have all known this rich musical legacy.<\/p>\n

For these reasons it is more than deserved the tribute that the group\u00a0Olga y los Ministriles<\/strong><\/span> has carried out with its last disc, titled precisely\u00a0Homenajje a Juan Jos\u00e9 de Mur.<\/strong><\/span> Olga y los Ministriles<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0adapts some of the musical themes picked up by Mur in his songbooks, carefully chosen and combined: jotas, albadas, children’s songs, popular dances, dance melodies… selected with great taste, with elegant arrangements and a magnificent interpretation, since the regular staff of the group (<\/strong>Olga Or\u00fas, Salvador Cored, Josu Ubierna, Antonio Or\u00fas, Sergio Rodrigo, Jes\u00fas Prades, Jairo P\u00e9riz<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 and\u00a0Virginia Costea)<\/span><\/strong> have joined some (but not all) of the musicians who have worked these songs regularly or have enriched them with contributions from different musical or geographical areas: Mariano Pascual, Miguel \u00c1ngel Fraile, Antonio Vi\u00f1uales, \u00c1ngel Vergara, Sergio Iguacel, Silvia Cored, Mikelo, Kepa Junquera, Eliseo Parra<\/strong><\/span> and\u00a0La Ronda de Bolta\u00f1a.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Olga y los Ministriles,<\/strong><\/span> both in their current stage and in their previous project, Hato de Foces,<\/strong> <\/span>have been characterized by their ability to select the most beautiful songs from the Arag\u00f3n songbooks, embellishing them even more with their lucid musical arrangements. With the same good taste they have elaborated this disc tribute to Juan Jos\u00e9 de Mur.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Although, as a counterpart, Olga Or\u00fas<\/strong><\/span> and Salvador Cored<\/strong> <\/span>announce on this record the end of an extensive stage (40 years) of recreation and popularization of traditional Altoaragonesa music, we will have to trust that their intention is no more than one of those New Year’s resolutions that we renew year after year, and we hope to see you and hear you soon at the helm of this or another project with similar traits, a field in which they have amply demonstrated their mastery and good work.<\/p>\n
