Résumé anglais After more than 50 years marked by conflicts and violence spread over the Colombian territory, war had direct repercussions in Colombia's countryside, but it also affected the inhabiting ways in urban centers. Inside cultural charges, which are the consequences of lifestyles affected by conflictual circumstances, Colombian popular music played a role as heritage and collective identity, as well as a reflection for this specific status. This paper discusses a selection of musical pieces, developed from 1945 to 1970, related with the internal war. This text compares and relates the artistic and musical creations with the history of armed conflict. Although violence in Colombia is a common matter in every region, colombian popular music features different perspectives and speeches of those who have lived in conflictive contexts, as in music as well as in its lyrics. Analysis of information recognises the following references : the book Contribución al entendimiento del conflicto armado en Colombia and reports of armed conflict developed by the Centro Nacional de Memoria Histórica, plus the concept of ethnomusicology as developed following Catherine Héau Lambert's theories (2005) regarding relationships and its representations through power in popular music. It is also taken as a reference about the work from Ana María Ochoa (2003) with the theory of musical hybridation in Colombia.
