Rabinal Achi is one of the few pre-Columbian literary works to survive the Conquest, a tragic story of epic proportions that, like other pre-Hispanic dramas, employed song, dance, mime, masks and declamation. Baile de las Canastas (Dance of the Baskets) celebrates the change from a semi-nomadic hunters' society to an agricultural civilization. Today it is performed as a series of set scenes using masks, dance, music, dialogue, and mime. The performance takes it's name from the tall baskets worn by the dancers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Rabinal Achi: A)Son Del Quiche Achi\/B)Son Del Rabinal Achi \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Baile de Las Canastas (Dance of the Baskets): A) Son Del Rey Gaspar (Music for King Gaspar)\/B) Son Del Gorrion (Song of the Sparrow)\/C) Son Del Ni?O, El Viejo y El Quetzal (Music for the Child, the Old Man, and the Quetzal Bird) \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Finale Del Baile de Las Canastas - Finale of the Dance of the Baskets \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Flute Solos: A) Son Del Rey Moro (Music for the King of the Moors)\/B) Son Del Amorate\/C) Son Para la Procession (Processional Music)\/D) Descanso de los Santos (Resting Place of the Saints)\/E) Entrada de la Imagen en la Cofradia (Entrance of the Saint Into \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Baile Del Venado (Deer Dance): A-D) Sones Para El Baile Del Venado \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Son de Cuaresma - Music for Lent \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Not Listed \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Baile de la Conquista - Dance of the Conquest: Son de Tecom Umam - King of the Quiches (1) \/ Son de Pedro Alvarado - the Conqueror of Guatemala (2) \/ Son de Zunun - Indian Noble (3) (Medley) \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Baile de Ajitz: Son de Ajitz, Son de Pepe \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Baile de la Conquista - Dance of the Conquest: Son de Pedro Cartocarrero (1) \/ Son de Santa Maria (2) (Medley) \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Indian Marimba - Baile de San Miguel (Dance for Saint Michael): A) Son Del Segundo Capitan (Music for the Second Captain)\/B) Son de Despedida (Farewell Music)\/C) Son de San Miguel (Music for Saint Michael) \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Ladino Marimba Music: Indio Viviente - Living Indian \/ Son de Chorchita - Music for for Chorchita \/ Son de Virgilia - Music Virgil (Medley) \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Son de San Gaspar - Music for Saint Gaspar\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Various Artists","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32456047329351,"sku":"16940369","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/1506150.jpg?v=1747362170","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/various-artists-maya-quiches-guatemala-various","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
