This week on Kids Commute, we’re listening to Venezuelan folk music, the soundtrack to Kate Botello’s upbringing. Today, we bring you a battle of two musical voices, where two singers sing against each other in a challenge. They trade lines back and forth until somebody misses. Kind of like a rap battle, except it’s folk music - and, in this case, Venezuelan. Today’s musical challenge is played on two instruments, the cuatro and the harp, to make it easier to hear each voice as it challenges the other.
We’ll give you the first hint for this week’s Kids Commute Quizlet. Text us the correct answer, and you’ll win a Kids Commute Prize Pack!
