Sinopsis

The short-documentary ‘Hauspoa & Tunela’ tells us about the arrival of the diatonic accordion to a village in deep Gipuzkoa (Zumarraga) with the works of the Madrid-Paris train. The diatonic accordion, played by an Italian worker, became over the years the most representative sound of Basque music, reaching the hearts of all Basques. The Trikitixa as we know it now, this instrument has evolved in music since Zumárraga.
