Description:
From Venezuelan composer and conductor Cristian Grases comes this energetic setting of a traditional Venezuelan folk song, its Latin flavor supported by guitar and percussion (parts included). Unison passages flow into easily grasped harmonies, and sensible repetition enables learning. An exciting addition to world music! In Spanish.
Venezuelan folk music comes to life in this spirited call-and-response piece that tells a part-nostalgic, part-aphoristic story about life, loss, nature, and dance. . . . It's a quick, rhythmic, and colorful addition to a multicultural concert program.
