The strict classification of Basque music remains a controversial issue, complicated in part by the growing diversification of such music, but by and large it may be argued that it is made in the Basque Country, that it reflects traits related to that society/tradition, and that it is devised by people from the Basque Country.

Traditional music

Basque traditional music is a product of the region's historic development and geographical location (namely, embedded between the Cantabrian mountain range, the Ebro river and the Pyrenees). As such, many feel that it should not be considered as having evolved in isolation. One example of the influence of the outside world is embodied in the historical functioning of the Way of St James as a flux of steady European cultural influence, up to the XVIII century.

I like David Archuleta and his music alot...Am I straight or gay?
