Murga
Murga is a vibrant and theatrical music genre originating from Uruguay, with deep roots in the country's Carnival tradition. Characterized by its powerful blend of choral singing and percussive rhythms, the genre incorporates an ensemble of voices often accompanied by snare drums, bass drums, and cymbals. Murga performances are known for their energetic and satirical nature, blending music with theatre and dance to convey socio-political commentary through sharp wit and humor. Artists typically don vibrant, colorful costumes and paint their faces, adding a visual spectacle to the auditory experience. Traces of the genre's influence can also be found in parts of Argentina and Spain. Its tradition upholds a strong sense of community and poignant storytelling, echoed in the fervent performances of groups like La Gran Muñeca and Curtidores de Hongos.
