- Field of Interest
- World Music
- Description
- It's Holy Week in Màlaga, Spain. We hear the dirges replete with trompetas and drums that mourn the Crucifixion; a song of repentance by a lone flamenco singer; followed by church bells, Gregorian chant, and organ that repeal the sorrow and announce the Resurrection; and the holy Amens of the congregants. Emory Cook provides an unobtrusive onlooker's commentary.
