    The Vals Criollo (English: Creole Waltz), or Peruvian Waltz (Spanish: Vals peruano), is an adaptation of the European Waltz brought to the Americas during colonial times by Spain. In the Viceroyalty of Peru, the Waltz was slowly changed to the likings of the Criollo people. In the 20th century, the genre became symbolic of the nation's culture as it gained widespread popularity in the country.

    History

    "La Guardia Vieja," translated as "the old guard," was a time period in Peru approximately from 1900-1920 in which as a result of the combination of European, Afro-Peruvian, and indigenous musical elements the vals criollo emerged among the public. The music is characterized by the use of triple metre, sometimes compound duple time, and the lyrics consist of verses in strophic form with intercalated choruses. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, the vals criollo became the main musical expression of the urban working class, with its lyrics reflecting their cultural personality, conflicts, and value systems. Composers such as Felipe Pinglo Alva, Laureano Martinez, Carlos Saco, Filomeno Ormeño Belmonte, and Alicia Maguiña enriched and drove the music at the time.

    History

    Vals

    Archeological finds from the Bronze Age around the thermal baths and Tomül pass as well as Iron Age items on the slopes of the Valserberg indicate that this area was used before written history. In the 11th and 12th Centuries the Valser valley was extensively used by the local Romansh. Vals is first mentioned in mid 12th Century as in Valle. About 1290 they were 4 to 7 farm houses with flocks of sheep.

    In the 13th Century, the Walser were driven from the canton of Wallis in south-west Switzerland into the Valser valley. The expansion of the Walliser German speaking Walser stopped in 1457 when they were forbidden from marrying or buying land from the Romansh speaking locals. They were able to settle at the end of the valley because that was the only place that wasn't claimed. The Walser also brought with them the Valliser style of house, which uses more wood than stone and has triangular roofs.

    Kalbimi çaldı
    Ortasından yardı
    Bir tohum ekti
    Çok farklı
    Gölgeye kaçtım
    Bir yudum su içtim
    Bin çiçek açtı
    Yok kimseyi duymadım, canımı sıkmadım
    Fikrini sormadım ben
    Yok benim ayarım yok
    Kaybolan zamanım yok
    Gel benim şahidim ol
    Ayrılmaz bir can hayalim ol
    Aklımı çeldi
    Ortasından deldi
    Bir ışık yaktı
    Çok renkli
    Gölgeye kaçtım
    Bir kıvılcım çaktım
    Bin güneş açtı
    Yok kimseyi duymadım, canımı sıkmadım
