The cuatro is a traditional musical instrument from Venezuela and from some Caribbean islands such as Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and Cuba, but let's talk about what this instrument represents in the Venezuelan world, its birth in Venezuela data from the 1400s, although for that moment Venezuela did not carry the name of Venezuela, because of the work of some Spaniards who made a four-string guitar as they were called at that time, whatever the instruments were, the instruments produced by those first Spaniards distanced themselves from the great interest among the population. Later it would be called Venezuela, after many mutations, the four was born to stay in the hearts of Venezuelans
It is one of the main instruments of Venezuelan folklore, and that together with the harp and maraca make the perfect combination in the plains of Venezuela, the adults play it, the children play it, the women play it.
