Orreaga

Slide · 12/8 · E minor

Orreaga is a traditional Basque tune whose precise historical origins and composer are not definitively documented. Written in 12/8 meter and set in E minor, it functions as a lively slide characterized by a flowing, rhythmic lilt that is typical of traditional dance repertoire. Because specific historical associations for the piece are lacking, performers focus on its evocative modal atmosphere and rhythmic momentum when playing it.
