Description
1 score ([vi], 40 pages); 34 cm
Summary
"The 'Pequeña suite' consists of three movements all based on traditional Colombian dances. The first movement is in the style of a bambuco, and Andean song and dance ... Also representing the Andes, the slow second movement draws on the torbellino, a moderately paced song and dance in strongly accented triple meter. ... In his third movement Mejía boldly incorporates popular music from the Atlantic coast for the first time in Colombian symphonic music."--Page [v].
