If any of you could provide the name of the song featured in this video from the 5:36 mark, I would be eternally grateful.

Here's the video:



I thought it was the Venezuelan national anthem, but that quickly dissipated when I listened to their national anthem.

In return, I will answer any and every single question posed to me.

So ask away, and answer away (even it's wrong, I will love you for trying)

New life goal: Put lots of effort into making a blog series that people like, get featured on major competitive PC gaming website-- so I can use it to find name of song in a video.

Sorry I can't help with the song, but at least I can ask if Austria's treating you nicely (assuming you're still there) and if there are any cool Starcraft (BW) things going on in August, such that you could pop over to West/Central Switzerland and I could try and make a final push to having a TL BW community meetup in Switzerland before it's too far gone.

That sentence needed a question mark somewhere, so here it is:

I believe this is what you are looking for... "Alma Llanera" -- a Venezuelan folk song


(skipped to 1m18s)



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alma_Llanera

Alma Llanera is a popular Joropo song composed by Pedro Elías Gutiérrez and with lyrics of Rafael Bolívar Coronado. It was part of a zarzuela whose premiere was on September 19, 1914 at the Teatro Municipal de Caracas.

Alma Llanera is considered as Venezuela's unofficial second national anthem. It is a tradition in Venezuela to end any social reunion or party with the intonation of Alma Llanera. The OSV (Venezuela Symphony Orchestra) made a beautiful arrangement of this piece of music to commemorate the 75 years of this widely popular song.

Today, Alma Llanera is considered as a Latin America landmark song and has been performed by many famous singers all over the world such as the Spanish tenor, Plácido Domingo.


The original lyrics of the Alma Llanera are as follows:
+ Show Spoiler +
Yo nací en esta ribera
del Arauca vibrador,
soy hermano de la espuma,
de las garzas, de las rosas,
soy hermano de la espuma,
de las garzas, de las rosas
y del sol, y del sol.

Me arrulló la viva Diana
de la brisa en el palmar,
y por eso tengo el alma
como el alma primorosa,
y por eso tengo el alma
como el alma primorosa
del cristal, del cristal.

Amo, lloro, canto, sueño
con claveles de pasión,
con claveles de pasión.
Amo, lloro, canto, sueño
para ornar las rubias crines
del potro de mi amador.

Yo nací en esta ribera
del Arauca vibrador,
soy hermano de los pumas,
de las garzas, de las rosas
y del sol.


A translation:
+ Show Spoiler +
I was born in this bank
of the rippling Arauca River,
I am brother of the surf,
of the herons, of the roses,
I am brother of the surf,
of the herons, of the roses
and the sun, and the sun.

I was lulled by the living reveille
of the breeze in the palm grove,
and so I have the soul
like the perfect soul,
and so I have the soul
like the perfect soul
of crystal, of crystal.

I love, I weep, I sing, I dream
of carnations of passion,
of carnations of passion.
I love, I weep, I sing, I dream
to adorn the blonde mane
of my lover's colt.

I was born in this bank
of the rippling Arauca River,
I am brother of the puma,
of the herons, of the roses
and the sun.

Almost four years old.

Yeah, I was intrigued that nobody had found it yet. And being the insomniac that I am, I gave it a try, for shits and giggles really. By the sound of it, it definitely had a Latin American, almost mariachi kind of touch to it. Since this was used in a Venezuelan broadcast and somebody posted earlier that their friend from Argentina said it sounded like something they've heard before, I figured it must be something well known in Latin America.

So I did a few trial and error searches on youtube, looking for famous mariachi pieces at first, then latin revolutionary marches and songs. After 15 minutes I meant to call it quits but tried one more query looking for "Venezuelan march". And this is when that Six Degrees Singers video turned up. Although acapella, it very much sounded like it and I finally had a title name from the comments, "Alma Llanera". So I typed that in next and -- by so finding that OSV recording -- could confirm the match and even found more information on Wikipedia (i.e. Joropo, not mariachi style).

I just youtubed "simon bolivar" because everything venezuelan is named after him, and the first video was the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra playing an encore, which included Alma Llanera.


go to about 4:15 for where it matches with the OP's song.
btw there's a reason this video came up first, it has over a million views for a reason. Watch it to the end.

but for some reason it didn't immediately click for me, so I kind of roamed around looking for venezuelan composers, stumbled across Aldemaro Romero (the wikipedia description "He composed a wide range of music, working in genres such as Caribbean, jazz, Venezuelan waltzes and symphonic works, which helped to modernize Venezuelan folk music" immediately caught my eye), looked him up and came up with him playing Alma Llanera on his famous "Dinner in Caracas" album. I listened to a different version of it, sounded familiar, came back here, compared. Then went back to the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra video and facepalmed because it was the first thing I looked at.

but proseat still beat me.

Proseat, THANK YOU SO FUCKING MUCH.

I was hopeless for so long and you have given me exactly what I wanted.

And two statements: 1. I didn't know TL had since created "Featured Blogs" so I'm sorry for wasting your time and 2. What the fuck is an AMA? Not even a question, just a statement.

Anyhow, I used to be popular here on this forum, but I keep forgetting that SC2 exists and thus I am irrelevant, but anyhow, you guys still came through for me.

Your signature is perfectly justified because I meant what I said. Also, my sister now has skin cancer in three different spots, but it's perfectly treatable, so don't be concerned.


Well, if you could feel a little concerned or worrisome, I would appreciate it.
