VOICED : Venezuelas most popular political dance

Heropa is a traditional Venezuelan music genre with roots in Spanish colonization. It remains popular across all ages and has moved to urban areas due to its appeal. The genre has political associations, partly due to Hugo Chavez's support, but it is seen as a cultural identity for all Venezuelans. Traditional instruments include the harp, maracas, and quattro, with modern musicians incorporating new elements. Despite government support, more cultural promotion is desired. Heropa unites communities, transcending political divides, and is celebrated for its vibrant rhythms.
