| Summary: | The east central region of the Chaco was populated from the beginning of the 20th century by people from Corrientes, peasants descendants of the miscegenation between Spaniards and Guarani. This is a community town, with few words, but expressed through music; which is an expression of joy but also an expression of rebellion, resistance. The music of the zone is the chamamé, music of a town that is opposed to a system that oppresses it. For this reason it was forbidden to play chamamé at school and because it is not cultured music; a case in the country of an authentically national songbook with ancient roots condemned without having even given an attentive hearing. This manifested the canalization of the contempt of the ruling class towards the social group to which it was aimed. For the same reasons, musical themes that spoke of Isidro Velázquez, a popularly admired rebel, were banned. |
