Ruper Ordorika: "I organize my disorder through songs."
The great Oñatiarra musician, an indefatigable chronicler of the emotional life of this country, has published the album Lurra ikutu barik (Elkar, 2025), an exciting exercise in music "without choosing, above, some of the themes that have come to me" at a difficult time. We have talked with Ordorika, outside the Durango Fair, about the effort to complete that work, about the creation, about the relationship with the musicians, about how to place it in a trembling world.
