Larry & Joe - Golpe de Garza ft. Nelson Enchandía, José Rendón (Official Audio)

Larry wrote this energetic instrumental piece on the harp in homage of his homeland, the state of Monagas in eastern Venezuela. The golpe is a musical form within the llanera tradition. Garza is Spanish for “heron,” one of Monagas’s characteristic birds. Larry captured the mystifying essence of a heron in flight in this composition, inspiring Joe to arrange it for banjo. One of Larry’s former students-turned-maracas master, José Rendón is featured on this track, as is Nelson Echandía, who’s one of Venezuela’s top bassists and also Larry’s dear friends.
