Venezuela's music: golpe tocuyano



One of the things I love a lot of Venezuela is its traditional music. Each region has its particular music style, reflecting a specific mix of native American, European and black African influences there. Here you can see a video of golpe tocuyano here. Several of my dearest friends come from the area of Lara, specially El Tocuyo and I used to visit that region as a child. This video brings very beautiful memories back.
