On its fifth week at BLLOGU, ‘Listening Journal’ presents the ‘Venezuela in Motion’ playlist, prepared by musician Ana Carmela, a 90 minutes journey, passing through various Venezuelan musicians and artists.
Some of the musicians in this playlist, including Guillermina Ramirez Cova, Carmella Lilia Vera, Pedro Eustache, Ismael Querales, Ana Carmela and Gabriel Chakarji, take us through a musical adventure on Venezuelan culture. Below are a few words shared for Lumbardhi’s audience by Ana Carmela Ramirez:
“This is a compilation of music from Venezuela, made by Venezuelan people honoring the culture and the traditions that belong to this small but rich place in South America. You’ll experience different instruments like the Venezuelan Cuatro dhe Bandola Llanera. You’ll enjoy the beauty of Afro-Venezuelan culture and our indigenous people in the Amazon. This is a brief journey, from the past to the present of Venezuela and a shed of light on how musicians are evolving and bringing new ideas to our folklore.”
