Elena Paz and Carlos García Travesi
"De todas las celebraciones religiosas que tienen lugar en España y otros países latinoamericanos, Las Posadas es quizás el más significativo y ciertamente uno de los más coloridos. El término hace referencia al refugio que buscaron José y María en los alrededores de Belén. En villas y poblados a lo largo de México y de otros países hispano parlantes todavía se puede ser testigo de cómo se revive esta peregrinación durante nueve noches que culminan en la Nochebuena..."

Capoeira Angola from Salvador, Brazil
"A good introduction to this highly passionate and expressive artform." — Cultural Survival Quarterly
Capoeira Angola, una forma regional de autodefensa y danza del Brasil cuyas raíces se erigen sobre tradiciones africanas, ha alcanzado una gran popularidad en diversos centros urbanos alrededor del mundo, evolucionando en una forma artística y filosófica ampliamente cultivada. Los ritmos tocados en el berimbau y los instrumentos de percusión expresan y controlan la práctica de la Capoeira, al mismo tiempo que acompañan el diálogo cantado entre el solista y un grupo. Los intérpretes presentados en estos 39 cortes se cuentan entre los más finos exponentes de la Capoiera Angola.

Many of the recordings are of dance music as music and dance are commonly linked in Caribbean cultures. Representing fifteen countries this collection speaks to the vibrant nature of the West Indies where even a song like “Nous Allons Dodo” or “We’re Going to Sleep” is anything short of a lullaby.

Caribbean Rhythms
Thomas J. Price Jr
"San Andrés es una pequeña isla, con una comunidad angloparlante de aproximadamente cinco mil habitantes, que está ubicada frente a la costa de Nicaragua. Su música, nunca grabada hasta ahora, es el producto de una interesante historia cultural que incluye influencias inglesas, norteamericanas y latinoamericanas. Originalmente poblada por plantadores jamaiquinos y sus esclavos, la isla fue cedida a Colombia hacia 1790 y, a pesar de la dominación cultural de este país hispanohablante, ha podido mantener una nada despreciable cantidad de sus antiguas tradiciones..."
