“Timeless minimalistic approach to composition braced by repetition and playfulness. Alberto’s music reflects calm, focus and intimacy. Ethereal and atmospheric, his pieces operate within the digital as well as the analogue realm in equal measures. Highest possible recommendation for fans of Suso Saiz, Jon Hassel, Eno or Harold Budd”
Alberto Lizarralde (Zaldibia, Basque Country) is one of the founders of the first school of Improvisational jazz and contemporary music (Jazzle) established in San Sebastián in the early 90’s. Alberto is a well-known figure among Basque musicians but not so much amongst the general public. In his CV we find: Direction of Plaza Festival, Zirrara Jazz record label, his work as a producer/editor (editions 3e argitalpenak) and the direction of the audiovisual installation “JA Artzeren Unibertsoa” as well as the arrangements and composition for the” Iparraguirre 7” project, both audiovisual projects focusing on Basque poetry and sound art.
