Query: Vera Cruz and the Jarocho Sones

This is a sampling of music from the heart of Vera Cruz. I regret the 4 star rating rather than 5, but the big band accompaniment for Tona La Negra is too bright, too loud and does not complement the sweet melancholy of her voice. I have older recordings on LP where she is accompanied by a smaller ensemble which better accentuated the deep feelings in her song. The ensembles lead by Lino Chavez and Andres Huesca, are composed of harp, jarana (a small, 4 stringed guitar), guitar and guitarron (base guitar). The harp and jarana perform improvisations that are surprisingly complex: note the use of fugue, counterpoint as well as harmony while the guitarron keeps time. The track by Los Tres Ases is very rousing. This is a worthwile purchase even for someone unaquainted with this type of music.
