Les temps forts

SONIDOS DE LA MANCHA : Vigüela & Sara Cano

Des villages de Castille aux scènes internationales, les musiques populaires de la Mancha rencontrent la danse contemporaine espagnole de Sara Cano. Une création entre héritage, mouvement et invention.

YÉZIDIS : LES VOIX DE L’EXIL

Trois journées pour rencontrer les Yézidis qui ont survécu au génocide perpétré par Daech et celles et ceux qui reconstruisent aujourd’hui leur culture dans l’exil. Concerts, témoignages, films, exposition immersive, recherche, rencontres et ateliers : Haizebegi fait entendre la parole des survivants et les voix d’une culture qui résiste, se transmet et se réinvente.

UNE CLÔTURE EXCEPTIONNELLE AVEC RUSAN FILIZTEK & FRIENDS

« Exils : de la Mésopotamie à l’Andalousie »
Stranbej, chanteur et musicien virtuose, Rusan Filiztek est l’un des grands ambassadeurs de la musique traditionnelle kurde sur les scènes internationales. Pour Haizebegi, il réunit autour de lui des musiciens venus de différents horizons et des artistes yézidis pour une traversée musicale de la Mésopotamie à l’Andalousie, où les traditions se rencontrent, dialoguent et se réinventent.
Un concert vibrant, comme un message de paix porté par la musique.

ABOUT

For the past twelve years, Haizebegi has been creating a unique space where music, the social sciences, and civic engagement come together. Every fall in the Basque Country, artists, researchers, thinkers, and citizens gather to explore the power of music as a common language and as a catalyst for social change. More than just a festival, Haizebegi is a breath of fresh air, a collective experience that fosters dialogue between cultures and challenges the way we live together. Here, art blends with thought, concerts give way to discussions, and films extend the conversations.

As Seen in the Media
The Basque Country and Iceland: A Shared Maritime History

Basque Country – Iceland: A Shared Maritime History The Baskasetur project, led by Haizebegi, gave rise in 2025 to a Basque cultural center in Iceland. This venue tells the story of the maritime ties that have connected the Basques and Icelanders for several centuries, centered on whaling, seafaring, and trade in the North Atlantic. A report from Ici 19/20 Euskal Herri Basque Country looks back on this cultural and scientific adventure.
