Hello, friends of Hive. It's Tuesday and as we all know, Tuesday is music Tuesday at Hive. Our friend @ablaze infected us with this dynamic that I think is wonderful and that is to share, every Tuesday, three pieces of music. I must confess that with this initiative I have met new singers, very good ones, and a little more music, which is perfect for me.
This week I thought of bringing to this initiative different versions of the same piece of music and I wanted to start with one of the most emblematic Venezuelan songs, after “Alma Llanera”, “Venezuela” and “Caballo viejo”, which has been covered worldwide: “Moliendo café”.
Although there is controversy about it, this piece is by José Manzo, Hugo Blanco's uncle who interpreted it in 1958, and from that moment on it became so popular that not only interpreters such as the Italian Mía, Julio Iglesias, Paco de Lucía, Lucho Gatica and Plácido Domingo, but it has also become a hymn for soccer fans. Our friend Wikipedia says about it:
“Moliendo Café” has become a popular chant for soccer fans around the world, and in Europe it is widely known as ‘Dale Cavese’ . The chant was first adopted by Boca Juniors fans a few years after Julio Iglesias recorded the song in 1976, and became popular at La Bombonera for a few decades, where fans know the chant as “Dale Boca” . The chant was picked up by fans of Italian team Cavese 1919 after coming across a CD of Boca Juniors chants. The fans first used it in a match against Ancona in September 2006, and a clip of their chant “Dale Cavese” was uploaded to YouTube in 2007. The video went viral and its popularity then spread to other clubs around the world, with many fans adapting the chants for their own teams.
Another version that I find surprising is the one performed by Mika Agematsu, a Japanese folk music harpist. When we see a musician from a country so far away, with a culture so different from ours, performing with such passion, her eyes shining and her face smiling, a Venezuelan native piece like “Moliendo café”, she reminds us that music is the universal language.
One style is never enough, that is why “Moliendo Café” has made different proposals. From the typical bolero, pop, salsa, rock, to new proposals where the genres merge and the queen is always the music, the creativity. In this version you can feel the musical sounds of soul, jazz, street funk and electric guitar solos. A contemporary, fresh proposal that demonstrates the timelessness of “Moliendo Café.
It is interesting, at least for me, to see how a Venezuelan folk song not only manages to transcend the borders of a country, but also to endure in time and make the new generations, always so confronted with the old and seeking to create new things, not only recognize the value of a song, but also make it their own and reinterpret it. Not for nothing, but music creates unbreakable bonds.
