Quartet Records, in collaboration with Solisterrae Music, present the score by renowned composer Pascal Gaigne (EL SOL DEL MEMBRILLO, PIEDRAS, EL OTRO BARRIO, HANDIA) for the film DANTZA, directed by Telmo Esnal in 2018, which has become a cult movie.

DANTZA is a musical film that, through Basque dances and all the symbolism they embody, tells a story about the cycle of life and the evolution of man. A story of effort, mastery of nature, myths, the struggle for survival, celebration, love and death, where gestures, songs, rhythms and the whole wide range of nonverbal language envelop the central discourse woven by the dances.

Composing the music for this film was a challenge. Adapting several folk dances and adding his own compositions, Gaigne weaves a common thread through the musical history of the Basque Country with his original arrangements and approaches, drawing on an unusual ensemble of musicians, percussionists and string and woodwind sections.

It is one of his most daring and interesting works, which deserved to be released as an album.
