A Latin Rite of Spring, full of mythological dances of the Mayas and the Aztecs and a ritual ending with the killing of a tropical snake: this is Revueltas' Sensemayá.
Inspired by a story by the Cuban writer Nicolas Guillén - which Revueltas heard from the poet himself - Sensemayá is built with refined skill exploiting the hypnotic rhythms, the asymmetries, and the wild percussion of the ethnographic heritage.
This piece is the one that got Revueltas international recognition since it was recorded by Leopold Stokowski in 1947. Many other conductors have tackled it after him, including Leonard Bernstein: his notes on the score are available here: archives.nyphi...
