Alma Llanera (Soul Of The Plains) is a popular Joropo song composed by Pedro Elías Gutiérrez and with lyrics of Rafael Bolívar Coronado. It was part of a zarzuela whose premiere was on September 19, 1914 at the Teatro Municipal de Caracas. The title, which may be translated as the "Llanero spirit" refers to the llaneros (Men of the plain lands), the herders of Venezuela and Colombia whose culture and popular imagery may be compared to that north-american cowboys. The llanero culture is at the root of the joropo, firstly as a dance and then as a musical genre.
Alma Llanera is considered as Venezuela's unofficial second national anthem. It is a tradition in Venezuela to end any social reunion or party with the intonation of Alma Llanera. The OSV (Venezuela Symphony Orchestra) made a beautiful arrangement of this piece of music to commemorate the 75 years of this widely popular song.
Today, Alma Llanera is considered as a Latin America landmark song and has been performed by many famous singers all over the world such as the Spanish tenor, Plácido Domingo.
