A unique and very highly recommended addition to any multicultural Christmas music collection, "La Noche Buena: Christmas Music Of Colonial Latin America" is an outstanding compilation of sixteen superbly performed pieces drawn from the decades between 1570 to 1680 where it was played in Spanish Catholic cathedrals throughout Latin America. Drawing from Mayan, Incans, West African, and Spanish sources, these pieces told the Nativity story through music in celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. SAVAE (San Anstonio Vocal Arts Ensemble) blends its seven voices with pre-Colombian, African, and European instruments to recreate these flawlessly recorded selections which include: Hoy es dia de placer (2:03); Christus natus est (2:15); Serenissima una noche (3:20); Hanacpachap cussicuinin (3:05); Dame albricia mano Anton (3:30); Tarara yo soy Anton (3:34); Eso rigor e repente (3:16); Magnificat Magnificat (măgnĭf`ĭkăt) [Lat.,=magnifies], song of the Virgin Mary, beginning "Magnificat anima mea Dominum" [my soul doth magnify the Lord], from Luke 1.46–55. It is the daily vesper hymn of the Roman Catholic Church and is usually sung at evening prayer in the Church of England. tertii toni (4:53); Conceptionem virginis Mariae (2:15); DXiochi, xiochi conetzintle (2:14); AQ AQ - (USN Rating) Aviation Fire Control Technician
