Tritó has signed an agreement with the heirs of the Basque musician José Gonzalo Zulaica Arregui (1886-1956) to distribute his works: scores, recordings and books on music. Better known by his religious name, the Basque Capuchin monk José Antonio de San Sebastián, or Aita Donostia – Father Donostia – was a composer, organist, folklorist and musicologist.

Many of his works were published during his lifetime, and P. Jorge de Riezu later compiled them in editions published by Archivo Padre Donostia. These works include Cancionero Vasco, his editions of 18th-century Basque music, his Preludios vascos, and his organ and choral music.
