Uruguayan murgas

[Arcadia]

talking one week ago with panta about carnivals, I told her that from the carnivals around here I would love to presence the uruguayan and the jujuy or bolivian ones some day!

Here´s a sample of uruguayan murgas. I saw two of these murgas in my city. They inspired also some rosarine ones, as for example "Caídos del puente". I must be great to be in Montevideo in times of the llamada! Enjoy!!!!!!!

the music is much softer and more meoldic than the wild and rhythmic tunes are around here.
but the spirit of the stage shows seems to be similar!

thanks a lot for sharing, arcadia.

I enjoyed the singing immensely
did not understand a word of it
I lov'd those costumes

Sometimes I think north america is a cultural desert
except for the parched Spanish south west.
