Gaita refers to a genre of music that centers around the sound of the gaita, a bagpipe traditionally associated with the Iberian Peninsula, particularly in regions of Spain such as Galicia, Asturias, and portions of Portugal. The genre is characterized by its strong Celtic influence, merging jubilant and sometimes mournful melodies with a distinctive Iberian flair. Gaita music often features a vibrant blend of percussion, vocal harmonies, and other folk instruments like the tambourine, fiddle, and hurdy gurdy. Embedded within the framework of celebratory dances and lamenting ballads, the genre encapsulates a rich cultural history. Artists and groups within this genre uphold and evolve these traditions, offering both rousing and introspective compositions that connect deeply with regional identity and the communal experience.
