Very good friends of Hive, I want to present you for this opportunity a post where the Merengue Caraqueño is the protagonist, with the beautiful song La Negra Filomena, of unknown authorship, I presume from its lyrics that it is a Cuban Guaracha where the Grupo Caraqueño Los Criollos They covered it in joke-merengue time with a lot of humor to differentiate it from the traditional merengue. This well rucaneada song, due to its calm and tasty rhythm at 5/8, is typically the music that has identified the capital city Caracas. For this gift I present a version recorded by the group Canto del Pueblo de Caracas in 1981, a group that I directed since its foundation and it is singing by the soloist and great singer of the group Santiago Tata Sánchéz, I give you his lyrics and the musical code .
