		Kepa Junkera is a legend in the Basque country, Euskadi, and with good reason.
		Junkera, ably assisted as usual by a host of talented friends from across the Basqueland and around the world, gives us two hours of music that will swell the ranks of his legion of admirers worldwide.
		Junkera does not always succeed in his ambitions, but he's not afraid to try.

	Kepa Junkera
		Kepa’s first contact with music came via his aitite (maternal grandfather) who at village dances accompanied Kepa’s mother on tambourine when she started out as dance partner to the famous Txilibrin.
		Kepa live is an inexhaustible source of colour and rhythm, adding to the nuances of his music enthusiasm, honesty, genius, versatility and passion.
		Their concerts are a constant renewal of material already released by Kepa under his own name or in his many collaborations with other artists, and of unreleased and new material.

	RootsWorld: Kepa Junkera: Bilbao 00:00h
		This typifies the entire album, where Junkera's high musicianship is always at the center, but where the music is never sacrificed to make him the star.
		Most of the tunes are by Kepa; a couple, and the melodies of two of the three songs, are by Ibon Koteron; this is traditional music but the word "herrikoia" (traditional) doesn't appear - it's a living tradition.
		You can listen to an "Audio Postcard" from Kepa Junkera produced by Global Village, the CBC radio program devoted to the world's musical events.

	Amazon.com: Bilbao Oo:Oh: Music: Kepa Junkera (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Junkera acts as a sly provocateur, getting a diverse group of players to highlight the power of his Basque music while freely insinuating their own heritage into the proceedings.
		Kepa Junkera is a world-renowned (except in the U.S.) Txalaparta (a kind of accordion) player.
		A trip around the world with Kepa Junkera as your host is one way to look at this set, but what's truly significant is the way in which musicians from seemingly unrelated cultures were able to play together without submerging their own unique musical flavors.

	Basque squeeze-box player's innovative style wins over traditionalists
		What happened in Spain with Kepa Junkera has happened with countless other musicians around the world, including Miles Davis and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan: Junkera took a traditional music and modernized it for an audience that preferred more pulse -- then was barraged by critics who said the changes amounted to sacrilege.
		Junkera still refers to trikitixa music as a "tradition," even though he has altered that tradition in ways he also couldn't have imagined all those years ago.

	FolkWorld Live Review: The Spanish Connections
		Kepa Junkera played three official concerts at Celtic Connections, including one in the Main Auditorium as support of Maire Brennan.
		His vital performance in the Sunday Times Suite was honoured by standing ovations (seldom seen at Celtic Connections!); and he thanked the audience with another of these ear-wigs which actually seemed to be never-ending, with some audience participation (the audience had to blow to let the accordeon play again...).

	kepa Junkera: Maren / RootsWorld Recording Review
		However, and in spite of being constantly interested in his country's traditions, Junkera returns to his intention of bringing together very distinctive cultures through music, by inviting some groups from eastern Europe such as Bulgarka Junior (from Bulgaria) and Tirana (from Albania).
		Those that were already bewitched by Junkera's previous work would probably imagine that he would have a major problem when he embarked on a new musical adventure.
		All of Junkera's work maintains a very high standard, but his previous release, Bilbao 00:00, was considered a masterpiece by critics all over the world, not only because of the quality of the songs, but also because of the enviable group of musicians that Junkera brought together on that record.

		Kepa Junkera played havoc with my schedule a couple of years back, when they managed to miss their original flight from the Basque country.
		I was in two minds as to which to go for and settled for Kepa.
		Not only did it give me a different perspective on the accordion, the whole set introduced me to a totally new sound.

		Si algo caracteriza a Kepa Junkera es su capacidad de entregarse a diferentes proyectos con la misma e inagotable energía.
		Nacido en la ciudad de Bilbao en 1965, Kepa tuvo sus primeros contactos con la música a partir de su "aitite" (abuelo materno), quien en las romerías acompañaba con la pandereta a su hija mientras ésta daba los primeros pasos de baile como pareja de Txilibrin.
		En el '94, Kepa se rodeó de amigos e importantes músicos de música tradicional de Euskadi tales como Ibon Koteron y las pandereteiras de Leilía y juntos grabaron "Kalejira Al-Buk".

		Kepa Junkera : Albums : Bilbao Oo:Oh : Berhueta : Reviews
		This beautiful double album is a tribute to the city of Kepa Junkera's youth, Bilbao.
		Mixing traditional and contemporary elements and featuring a truly stellar international cast of musicians (including Bela Fleck, Paddy Moloney of the Chieftains, Fain Dueñas of Radio Tarifa, and Carlos Beciero of La Musgana), Bilbao 00:00h is grounded by Junkera's skillful work on the trikitixa (Basque diatonic accordion).
