Abstract

This article seeks to discuss and make evident how the tensions between tradition-folk-heritage and modernity-hybridizations-mass-media on colombian music scene have been solved and how this solution affects their main function which is to provide identity to people and communities. Within this complex relationship, crossed by power variables, by speeches and actions of individuals and communities to create and build their lives around these concepts, there are major disputes, contradictions, shifts and negotiations.
