content: Biotzetik Basque Choir The Biotzetik Basque Choir was founded in 1986 by members of Boise, Idaho's Basque community. Biotzetik, which in Basque means "from the heart," is made up of a mix of native, first and second generation Basques and non-Basques. They sing traditional Basque folk songs and religious services as part of festivals, weddings and funerals. The choir is accompanied by members who play accordion, tambourine, guitar and txistu (flute).
