Andean bandola classes in Bogotá, at home and virtual

Andine bandola is the melodic voice of typical Colombian trio: while the tiple and guitar carry harmony and rhythm, she sings the melody of bambucos, corridors and whirlwind with her brilliant trémol. It's played with a pleptro with metal strings grouped into orders and in class you learn to do so with an evaluated teacher that knows the Andean Repertoire and sets the way to your level.

At how old do we start?

From age 8

To be oriented, many children start at about 8 or 9 years old, as their hand already embraces the diapason and their fingers have the strength to step on metal string orders without frustration. Before that age, a musical initiation base that develops pulse and ear best works. It depends on every child: his or her hand size, his or her interest and his or her capacity to concentrate. Adults can start at any age, and many come to the bandola after playing guitar or tiple, making it easier to get his or her first steps.

What do you need to start with?

  • A good andine bandola with new and comfortable string height. If you have doubts about how to get them, your teacher guides you.
  • Plectors of different thickeners to find the best responder in your hand.
  • A tuner (an app serves) and later a metronomer.
  • For virtual classes: a stable connection and a device with a camera with both hands.

Do you play only Colombian music at the bandola?

The heart of the repertoire is Colombian Andean music and that's how to start his training. Nevertheless, his bandola also appears in arrangements of Latin American, classical and popular music. Your teacher can include pieces that motivate you without neglecting the traditional base.
