Abstract

During the La Tirana Festival, cultural and religious expressions are developed that are part of the north of Chile’s musical-choreographic tradition. One of these manifestations is the rhythm of the salto initially linked to the chuncho dances and with wide dissemination from the mid-20th century. This article analyzes the sound, musical and choreographic characteristics, expanding the knowledge about this musical genre and its socio-cultural and historical context.
