Jesus Guridi (1886-1961) was a Spanish composer and organist, who championed the continued use and preservation of Basque folk music. He is best remembered for his superb orchestral works such as Basque Melodies , which were often transcribed for the Piano. Guridi wrote 7 pieces for the Harp, of which Viejo Zortzico is certainly the most popular today. Composed in 1949 and premiered in 1950, it wasn’t published until 1960. Simply entitled Old Zortzico , it is inspired by the traditional Basque dance of the same name, a popular reel in 5/8 time.
