Download or read book Dancing Throughout Mexican History 1325 1910 written by Sanjuanita Martínez-Hunter and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a must read for anyone who would like to learn more about Dance in Mexican History. It is an especially important reference for teachers of Mexican Folkloric Dance who would like to incorporate Mexican Dance History into their teachings. Using the time frame of 1325-1910, Martínez-Hunter skillfully gives a brief overview of Mexican history accompanied by an analysis of the dances during this period. She begins by diving into accounts of the Aztec dances in Pre-Hispanic Mexico before and after the conquest. Then, she describes the Dance Dramas that arose when the Spanish began to Christianize the Indigenous people. During the Spanish colonization, Martínez-Hunter notes the ways in which theatrical dances were imported from Europe to Mexico; the influences of the court dances including the pavane, sarabande, and the chaconne which began in the New World and traveled to Europe; as well as the Indigenous, mestizo, Chilean, and African influences on the dances of Mexico. Then, covering the dances during the Independence of Mexico (1810-1821) until the beginnings of the Mexican Revolutionary War (1910-1920), Martínez-Hunter juxtaposes the popularity of the European ballroom dances with the dances of the peasant people known as jarabes and sones. To honor the life's work of Martínez-Hunter all the photographs of the jarabes and sones included in this book feature her dancers of the University of Texas at Austin Ballet Folklorico from the 1970s. They document her many contributions to Dance when she was a faculty member at this institution.

This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Dances, Music, and Songs of the Ancient and Modern Mexicans At a signal, the music commenced, and the art consisted in dancing, so as to make the rhythmic movements coincide with the music and the songs which accompanied it. (knowing that the Mexican instruments produced a rather discordant music, it may be supposed that the songs were for the purpose Of giving it some harmony by blending the deep sounds of the drums with the shrill notes of the utes and pipes.) The movements were carefully indicated and the dancers, says Orozco y Berra, as though moved by springs, were supposed to raise simultaneously the same hand, the same arm, or move the same foot. Naturally, he adds, 'f those in the first circle moved relatively Slowly, but in proportion as they were distant from the center, the dancers had to cover a greater distance in the same length of time, and consequently the speed kept increasing. At the end of each strophe, they started over again. Then the time changed, constantly increasing the rapidity of movement, in such a manner that at the end the dancers in the last' circles acquired a giddy speed. Between the concentric circles the little children fol lowed the dance, together with bu 'oons and a kind of clowns, who wore ridiculous disguises, and now and then spoke or sang jokes or clever remarks to amuse the spectators.
