KING OF KINGS
This yr the good expectation is the Rey de Reyes contests within the classes of Skilled Accordion, Unpublished Vallenata Music and Piqueria Mayor, the place there can be 17, 23 and 14 contestants, respectively.
This tournament occurs each and every 5 years, earlier than it was once each and every 10 years, and the former winners have been Álvaro López Carrillo in Skilled Accordion; in Canción Vallenata Inédita, Ivo Luis Díaz Ramos, with the merengue ‘El rey de los ATMeros’, and in Piqueria Mayor, José Félix Ariza Vega.
Exactly Álvaro de Jesús López, fourth King of Kings in 2017, said. “Getting to carry the best crown awarded through the Vallenata Legend Pageant is one thing nice, one thing that has no comparability. With all my middle I want many successes to people who are on the lookout for the 5th crown this yr.”
The former King of Kings crowns have been held through Nicolás Elías ‘Colacho’ Mendoza Daza (1987), Gonzalo Arturo ‘El Cocha’ Molina Mejía (1997), and Hugo Carlos Granados Córdoba (2007).
