Traditional Vallenato Songs Arranged For Two-Voice Children's Choir

Abstract

Choral singing is a musical sample that is quite practical when it comes to being interpreted in a community since it can be performed only with human voices or it can be accompanied by an instrument. In the present study, an analysis of the songs of the traditional vallenato genre was carried out, mainly covering its melody and its rhythmic structure, for the creation of two-voice arrangements for a children's choir and their transcriptions, and in this way apply strategies for their recovery. On the other hand, it seeks to start from this to implement the traditional Vallenato choral singing taking the new generations as a reference, that is, in schools, foundations and communities. To achieve that from the youngest population a new boom of the traditional vallenato reappears and is established in the following generations.
