Seivane

The patriarch of Seivane celebrates 90 years!

52

Xosé Manuel Seivane Rivas will be 90 years old next 9 February. On the occasion of his anniversary, the Obradoiro de Gaitas Seivane will celebrate a great party on Saturday February 12, at 17:00 pm in Obradoiro installations in Cambre, A Coruña.

More than 70 years have passed since Xosé Manuel Seivane Rivas built his first gaita with Seivane seal, thus his childhood dream of building his own instrument came true. So he has spent all his life to Galician traditional music, and now he is a reference in the construction, transmission and dissemination of our culture.

From here the Obradoiro de Gaitas Seivane wants to pay a small tribute to him in appreciation for his work during these decades. The family and friends will meet, for wrapping with their affection and admiration to the initiator of this saga of craftsmen and musicians who already counts on his 4 th generation.

There will be much music and party is assured!
You are all invited, don´t miss it!
