El Sanjuanero, often called simply Sanjuanero, (translation "St. John's Festivities Song") is a traditional Colombian bambuco song. Its music was written in 1936 by Anselmo Duran Plazas and its lyrics were written by Sofía Gaitán Yanguas.[1] It was first performed on July 12, 1936.[2] and recorded for the first time in the 1950s by the duo Garzon y Collazos.[3] It's one of Colombia's most recognizable folkloric songs, and it is the anthem of the Festival Folclórico y Reinado Nacional del Bambuco.
The traditional Sanjuanero choreography was created by folklorist Inés García de Durán[4] in 1960 and consists of three basic steps (caminado, bambuqueado, and contradanza), eight basic figures and five or more adornment figures.[2]
