Program Notes

Work dedicated to this characteristic place, located between the municipalities of Medellín and Santa Elena (Antioquia), Colombia. It depicts the imposing mountains, the beauty of the landscape and the tranquility that arises from the close contact with nature. The work alternates bamboo and cane rhythms, characteristic airs of the Colombian Andean area.

Bambuco is a traditional music genre originated from Colombia. It has a beat structure similar to the European waltz or polska (not to be confused with the polka). Typically a bambuco piece is a folk music song accompanied by a stylized group dance in either a 6/8 or 3/4 meter.

Bambuco took a cultural foothold in the Andean region of Colombia and has spread in popularity throughout Latin America. The Festival Folclórico y Reinado Nacional del Bambuco in Neiva is a festival celebrating bambuco music.
