This is an absolute treasure! Without a doubt, Columbia’s “Cumbia Mayor” sounds strikingly mesmerizing and exuberant wherever it takes root be it Italy, País Vasco, Thailand, Uruguay, England or Costa Rica, far away from its Caribbean birthplace in northern S. América. Mexico and Argentina already feel and breath Cumbia, as part of their own folklore and cultural heritage. Each country absorbs it, adds its own flavor and makes it their own. It is truly a metamorphosis without parallel in musical history. Is Uruguay heading the same way ? Thank you from Pereira (Col.) via Texas, USA where we also live and eat Tejano, the Texas version of Cumbia. Thank you, Africa and indigenous América. We vow to your heritage that gave rise to “La Cumbia Mayor”.
