Ponce (1882-1948), the founder of Mexican musical nationalism, often incorporated the melodies of traditional folksongs into their music (12 Canciones mexicanas – 1913).  This arrangement is for a 4-part brass ensemble of 2 trumpets and 2 trombones.  Performance time: 4:15. Expand the awareness of Mexican Art Song repertoire through performance.
