Grand Curucaye String Orchestra of Trinidad - Epilogue to the String Band Tradition AEC Video Cavity or Nirvana among countlessThe Grand Curucaye String Orchestra performs lively old time Spanish dance music, now a nearly forgotten genre. What is notable about this music is that string instruments are plucked rather than bowed in order to focus more on the element of rhythm. Banjo leads the ensemble, which also includes cuatro (a strummed stringed instrument similar in shape to a ukulele or guitar) and cello (played by slapping the strings).
