Product Details

Product Description

In Venezuela, the word aguinaldo has two meanings. It is synonymous with a gift that is given at Christmas, but also refers to a very popular musical genre in our own country of the Christmas season. This genre represents the quintessential musical expression of Venezuelan Christmas. Modesta Bor, our composition teacher, always instilled in us the cultivation of this genre in the repertoire of our choirs and as creative work, in order to preserve it from its disappearance before the overwhelming invasion of other musical genres strange to our traditional Christmas holidays.

Partamos a Belén and La llegada de los Reyes were written in 1980, and are the fruits of those years of study. Any of the two can be sung a cappella, although they can also be accompanied by our traditional cuatro.
