Andrés Landero
Andres Landero (1931-2000), exemplified the continuity of the cultural traditions of his pueblo, San Jacinto, both musically and thematically as the son of a gaitero. In a town whose cultural traditions revolved around the cumbia, bullerengue, fandango, etc., Landero crafted his conjunto in this vein. As a campesino within the context of a campesino culture, the themes in his music pride the essential values that the campesino necessarily attached to the land and his/her crops.

As a campesino within the context of a campesino culture, the themes in his music pride the essential values that the campesino necessarily attached to the land and his/her crops. In resistance to the commercialization of costeno music and “El Vallenato6” as well as national racial projects that upheld whiteness as superior in every way, Landero vigorously championed the cultural traditions of San Jacinto and its afro-indigenous roots through a variety of contexts.

La Pava Congona
by Andrés Landero

Yo una tarde en la montaña, oí cantar el corco vaho (bis)
Vive tendiendo la araña, sus redes sobre dorado (bis)
(Solo de Acordeon)
También cantaba el Juan polo, al amanecer el día (bis)
Yo que me miraba solo, con eso me entretenía (bis)
oye jaime como cantaba ese pajaro
(Solo de bajo, canto del pajaro Juan Polo)
prende la vela roberto veles
(Solo acordeon - andres landero)
Cantaba la gallineta, también la pava congona (bis)
Le advertí que vi bien quieta, y la suiri que da la sola (bis)oigan muchachos como canta la pava congona
en la montaña
(Solo acordeon de Andres Landero - canto de Pava congona en la montaña)
va jaime con ese bajo
