| Bertsozale Elkartea is an association from the Basque country (Spain), which promotes the traditional Basque art of improvised and sung rhyming verses called "bertsolarism". Their FORTE project will focus on orality in education, and will involve non-formal bertso-schools in the French and Spanish Basque regions. |

| Lets sing it! |
 |
Hi Forte people!
We have already finished with the 'bertsofiles' and now it is time to see how much have we learned. And how do we do that? It is easy. Just, singing!
We have come to normality in the bertso school and we sing and sing and sing. But now, topics are quite different, closely related to the things we have seen in the bertsofiles. For example, last day Xabi asked us to sing in the following situation: 'Peru, you're a mischievous child and Itxaso, you're his grandfather. Peru will tell the pranks he has realized and the grandfather will have to advise him (by using basque traditional proverbs, as it was one of the special topics of the bertsofiles)'.
Just for a brief idea: Peru told Itxaso that he had done a lot of mischiefs, but the grandfather answered that she had already known about all of them, because 'bad news travel fast'.
Of course, the performance did not have any changes, according to the traditional ones.
Bye!
P.S: This is the website of our bertso school. ALBE (It is just available in basque, but there are nice pictures to enjoy the visit).
