Traditional Music
Basque traditional music is a product of the region's historic development and its geographical location between the Cantabrian mountain range, the Ebro river and the Pyrenees. Because this area is open to the wider world, for example through international pilgrimage on the Way of St James, many feel that it should not be considered as having evolved in isolation.

Famous quotes containing the words traditional and/or music:
“The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
“A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children.”
—Ian Anderson (b. 1947)
