Description
This ethnographic field collection documents the musical heritage and Catholic religious and cultural traditions of the Hispano residents of the portion of the northern Rio Grande region spanning northern New Mexico and southern Colorado. It contains sound recordings of alabados (hymns), folk drama, wedding songs, and dance tunes performed by various artists singing a cappella and performing on fiddle, guitar, and harmonica, collected by Juan B. Rael in 1940. The collection includes correspondence with Alan Lomax and others at the Library of Congress (1939-1941), administrative materials, and recording logs. It also includes song transcriptions and translations and materials generated in the process of creating an American Memory online presentation in 1999, with essays and a glossary by Enrique R. Lamadrid.
