About ¡Soy Salvadoreño! Chanchona Music From Eastern El
Chanchona music is rooted in the rural life of the region of Oriente (East) of El Salvador. Chanchona, literally "big sow," takes it's name from the size & shape of the stringed bass that anchors this ensemble's music. While it's sound of violins, guitars, percussion & bass is distinctive, musically, it has a lot in common with nearby Caribbean & Mexican popular dance musics. Rhythmic Cumbias, lively canciones rancheras (country songs) slower, romantic boleros & homegrown lyrics form the core of the Chanchona's repertoire. 14 trks, 51 minutes, 36-pg booklet w/ bilingual notes!
