he Moscovita Orchestra of Traditional Mu- sic was created in 1980, under the direc- Ttion of the Veracruz-born son of Pedro Domínguez Castillo, or “Moscovita”, to promote the rescue and diffusion of traditional Afro-Ca- ribbean music from Veracruz. After his death in 1989, the Universidad Veracruzana retains the orchestra with his name, in recognition of his artistic career.

Considering the port of Veracruz as the point of entry for all rhythms from Europe, and its contact with the African influence of the Caribbean, the Orchestra maintains in its repertoire the most varied Afro-Caribbean music, from the most classical danzón or danzonete, boleros , sones, son pregón, Years mambos, chachachá, even salsa. of career

This deep and vaired repertoire has allowed the Orchestra to participate in many different cultural festivals that take place around the country, from the Cervantino to the Caribbean Festival in Cancun, alongside groups representing Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Panama, and other countries. In addition, the Orchestra has participated in cultural exchanges with other universities in Mexico.

Of particular interest among the Orchestra’s academic activities are the didactic concert, musical presentation of the history of some of the instruments featured in the Orchestra, and the history or definition of some of the rhythmic styles that are played in Afro-Caribbean music. Its members also give continuing education courses in trombone and trumpet.

Recognized for their work in preserving the traditions of Veracruz

258 259 260 261 Career highlights

ince its inception in 1986, Tlayoltiyane (“The creators,” in Náhuatl) Trio have dedicated Sthemselves to performing the traditional music from the Huasteca region: son huasteco and huapango. As is often the case in this musical tradition, the Trio is a family affair, comprised of the father, Antonio Hernández Meza, and his two sons, Jorge Alberto and Marco Antonio Hernández. All three sing as well as performing masterfully on violin, the jarana, and quinta huapanguera. Addi- tionally, they are skilled luthiers and accomplished composers of music of this tradition. Currently they also comprise an important section of the larger ensemble Tlen Huicani, Years which accompanies the Ballet Folklórico de la UV (Folkloric Ballet of Universidad Veracruzana), which has toured throughout Europe, Asia, and America. As a trio, they have performed on many stages throughout Mexico.

La Huasteca La Huasteca, an extensive region in the northeast of Mexico, includes part of the states of Veracruz, Hidalgo, San Luis Potosi, Tamaulipas, Puebla, Que- retaro and Guanajuato, where ethnic groups like the Tenek, or Huastecos, Pames, Naguas, Otomíes, and Tepehuas coexist with the Meztizo (mixed-ra- ce) population. The name (Huasteca) is derived from that given to the earliest settlers, the Huax- tecas, or Cuextecas, who populated this territory which divides Mesoamerica from the arid regions of the north.

Sones y huapangos The jarana Huasteca is a small five-stringed instrument used to accompany the melodies played by violin and voice, and possesses characteristics that distinguish it from other types of jarana. The same goes for the quinta, or huapanguera, similar

262 263 in shape and proportions, but larger, with five sets Members of strings, of which three can be doubled optionally. These instruments are truly products of the region, since the builders, as well as the materials, come from there. The wood – red cedar, sapota, charcoal Antonio Hernández Meza – are all obtained from areas surrounding the community where the artisan lives and works typically Jarana Huasteca in a small rudimentary workshop, where the work is done slowly and painstakingly. Jorge Alberto Hernández Beginning in the 18th century, the use of the violin spread throughout many regions in Mexico, and Violin in Huasteca, it was adopted as the predominant instrument. Probably from then on, the trio made up of the violin, jarana, and huapanguera became Marco Antonio Hernández characteristic of the indigenous and mixed popula- tions in the interpretation of their traditional mu- Huapanguera sic, sones and huapangos. Of distinctly indigenous origin is the son de costumbre, which is music with connected to ritual, created to accompany Ángel de Jesús Aparicio Hdz. dances, candlelight vigils (associated with funerals), and in general ceremonies connected to a religious Jarana Huasteca context, or a mythological context, to agricultural cycles, propitiatory practices, the cycle of life, and many other aspects of traditional culture. On oc- casions, the music is accompanied by rattles, cas- tanets, or a rhythmic dance (similar to Flamenco), and is exceptionally combined with singing.

In ceremonies not involving dance, the son (music) indicates an unfolding of the ritual. For example, a wedding, an invitation or expression of gratitude, a call for fertility and a good harvest, for the washing of hands, or where companionship is symbolically and publicly linked.
