Abstract

CIRO GOMEZ, Bernardo A  and  SERNA GONZALEZ, Maritza. The Tambora Lobana: approaching a field research, appropriation and divulgation process with pedagogical aims. Pensam. palabra obra [online]. 2016, n.16, pp.24-35. ISSN 2011-804X.

The Tambora is an expression of oral traditions nurtured by the inhabitants of the riverside municipalities along the Magdalena River, mainly so in the southern regions of the departments of Bolivar, Cesar and Magdalena. This article focuses on three municipalities of the Loba sub- region which preserve this tradition, and its main purpose is to highlight the importance of ethnographic field research to encourage the research processes in the development of artistic practices within the classroom. As an emergent methodological alternative, a musical ethnography is herein proposed, considering the elaboration of some tambora son transcriptions, discerning in the meantime the internal dynamics of the sociocultural environment. Finally, it also considers their release in academic circles as well as the appropriation of these rhythmic-melodic structures for educational purposes.

Keywords : Tambora; Ethnographic research; Loba sub-region; Musics.
