Indian Music of Mexico-Zapotec, Otomi, Yaqui, Maya (1957) recorded by Laura Boulton CD

"This item is part of the Folkways (Cook, or Paredon, or Monitor) archives. The original liner notes from the LP are included."

"On this album, emphasis has been placed on the music and instruments indigenous to Mexico. Those of Spanish origin are used only where they are combined with typically Indian music or ceremonies. The elemental and universal qualities of this music give it significance and virility. It has been called ‘the living voice of an ancient culture’..."
