I really like music and could not avoid rejoicing at watching the video. As I live next to Brazil, we frequently travel there for our summer holidays. In general, I think, music from the northeast of Argentina receives a strong influence from Brazil and Paraguay, as well as from European cultures, due to the immigration stream of early 20th.C.
Well,I took the challenge and I looked for some YouTube videos to share with you, these are two chamames that represent our region: 'Sobredosis de Chamamé'
and Chango Spasiuk's 'Mi pueblo, mi casa, mi soledad'
which means 'My town, my house, my loneliness'. How do you like them?
Travelling south into the Argentinian culture, from Misiones to Buenos Aires, you will find tango as the most representative musical genre. I suggest you to watch this audio-video 'Libertango' a version of Piazzola's musical by Spasiuk, too. This is really cool!
Blogging is wonderful. In four weeks we already started sharing our feelings, tastes and knowledge from all over the world. I'm really amazed! still awkward or clumsy about widgets, twitters, RSS, tags, pings, and so on , but joyfully learning ! Congrats for the moderators whose willingnes and encouraging words help us to go on.
I'll be looking forward to every kind of comment, so I may go on learning...
