Hive Music Festival | Week 101 round 2 | Golpe de Arpa y Estribillo (Improvisation)
I was saving this performance for any week I didn't have anything prepared. The best part is that it is something you can make on the fly if you've got to play something. For this second round, here we have an instrumental improvisation of Golpe de Arpa and Estribillo.
These fixed patterns in music are usually what comes at the end of Joropos in the eastern side of Venezuela. The interesting part is how to keep the stamina while going from one to another. As you can see it requires some endurance. My right arm will be dead for a few hours after playing this. You might understand that this didn't get to be a one-take video, but alas, it was possible.
Keep practicing this is important, not only to avoid forgetting how the melody moves. But it is also an improvisation exercise. Some things might change in the future some phrases could be taken out of the rotation and others might join in. The important part is being in sync with the key and the rhythm. And the toughest part is not missing the window of changing from 3/4 to 6/8. That's the wild thing about linking these things together.
It so happened that while I was trying to record, the jump from ternary to binary bars was a mess. And it is not that I don't know how to do it, but when you're inspired and in the zone about something, it is usually hard to make the other jump. That's why practicing these patterns is important. And it is also a nice exercise to be able to play for more minutes. You see, people tend to extend these improvisations to 5 or 6 minutes. It doesn't sound like a lot. However, it's a completely different thing to be in the public than playing the actual thing.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy my little improvisation!

It's super happy... you know I don't know much about music but it's very uplifting, it's great!!! Thank you very much Andres!
Just doing my best 😁
Me sentí con alpargatas y liquiliqui. Que sabroso es este sabor venezolano, sus llanos y sus creencias. Sobre todo sus historias. Estuvo fenomenal tu ejecución y la creatividad. Buena combinación 👌🏼
Gracias, gracias. Ya puedo usar mi brazo otra vez. Hacer esta gabación me dejo con un solo brazo por un rato. 😂
Me encanta el llano presente en esa tonada, gran trabajo.
Es música del oriente imitando la llanera, pero tiene sentido escuchar el llano ahí.
O My God!! Playing in such fast mode and with precision is a thing to be commended for. You know what to do so well man. This is lovely
Thanks a lot my friend!
