Cimarrón - Joropo music from the plains of the Orinoco River.

Cimarrón performs Joropo music from the plains of the Orinoco River which borders Colombia and Venezuela. Their powerful music achieves a unique blend of Andalusian, Indigenous American and African roots, with impetuous and impassioned vocals, dynamic dance, and fierce instrumental virtuosity. The ensemble includes a four-stringed cuatro, harp, maracas, Peruvian-flamenco cajón, Brazilian surdo, and Afro-Colombian tambura.
