Answer to Question 1

 dominating short-long-short-long-long sanjun rhythm (motive) used to create melodies of 8-beat sanjun phrases
 medium tempo with duple (two-beat) metrical rhythm

Answer to Question 2

 The timbre (instrumentation) consists of solo male singer accompanied by Imbabura harp (a small, diatonic harpsee below) and golpe (time beater).
 On the diatonic harp: Most orchestral harps in the Western music-culture are chromatic and therefore capable of playing in any of the twelve major or minor keys and/or scales common in this culture. Western chromatic harpists are able to do this by quickly depressing foot pedals that are attached to the bottom of the harp. Diatonic harpsdiatonic means limited to only one scale or key at a timedo not have such foot pedal devices, so they are limited to playing in only one key at a time. In order to play in another key the harpist would have to take time to carefully retune many of the strings.
