Today I want to share with you, that I was visiting a restaurant, where they invited me to breakfast, called Granos Cafe, and the breakfast was delicious, we ate a Gourmet Omelette, really a delight.
After sifrutar of that delicious food, my eyes went directly to a small corner where there was a sale of fancy goods, made with different materials. But when I see on the edge of the shelf, where they exhibited these clothes, I was surprised to see these replicas of original musical instruments from my region, then I took my mobile and started taking pictures to have the pleasure of sharing it with you.
This photo that we see below represents the instruments of the traditional dance of Venezuela, El Joropo, that the Creole group that plays the instruments, always has a phrase that says; dance to the sound of the harp, four and maracas.
So here we can see these three instruments incarnated in one, for me it is the most beautiful thing that my eyes can see.
Separating a little more specific, we find the mini cuatro, an instrument made of very fine wood and composed of only four strings of nailo, its sound is so Creole, and less classical, it is a strong instrument that is for the accompaniment, we would do it by example, director of the joropo.
Now I present them separately. The maracas are made of the fruit of the tree, the fruits, they are a children's toy common in all parts of Puerto Rico. The fruit should be round and small. After removing the pulp from the fruit through two holes drilled in the dry shell, small pebbles are introduced into it. But here in my beloved Venezuela, it is an instrument that adapted to the originality of our music, although they are originally from PUerto Rico.
I do not want to miss the opportunity to show you, this photograph, a typical toy of my country, called perinola. It is known as a whirligig and is a traditional toy like the spinning top and the metras. At the moment they have appeared again in some states like Zulia. Initially, the windlass was made by hand with empty cans and sticks or carved wooden parts, but now they are made of plastic. Here I present the replica in miniature.
Sharing our daily experiences, with all of you is a pleasure, because every day we get to know each other better and enjoy each publication that we upload to this platform, I really LOVE#Ulog, and as always, I can not stop thanking @surpassinggoogleand @ulog.

Me encanto tu post. Siempre me han gustado las cosas en miniatura y mas si son instrumentos musicales. Hacer ese tipo de objetos es complicado y es todo un arte, es común verlos en venta en zonas turísticas de nuestro país. Ojala este tipo de cosas nunca desaparezcan.

Yo opino igual que usted, ojala y estas tradiciones, nunca desaparezcan, porque es hermoso contar con cosas como estas, y se que es un trabajo muy grande hacer cosas miniaturas como estas. Gracias por su comentario.
