| Summary: | Within the framework of this debate, the validity of the so-called “anti-age” and its symbols are questioned. One of them, the Antioquia Anthem was made at the beginning of the 20th century by a composer of great value and presence in the city, on the verses of a Yarumanian poet, sick of freedom. It is possible that the Caucasian musician Gonzalo Vidal is hardly remembered by Colombians as the creator of a few works. Perhaps it has been officially presented and for the common people only as the composer of the famous Stations of the Viacrucis, on a text by the Jesuit Tomás de Villarraga, which is sung unfailingly in the Colombian Holy Weeks, and several noble anti-Quechian works Epic breath, like the Antioquia Anthem, about a popular poetic text by Epifanio Mejía. This text takes a tour of various moments, inquiring about the configuration of the Antioquia anthem, from the publication of the poem by Epifanio Mejía in 1868, to the version we know today with music by Gonzalo Vidal. |
