Silvestre Revueltas: La noche de los mayas: IV. Noche de Encantamiento for Orchestra (Score video)

"La noche de los mayas" is a film score by the Mexican composer Silvestre Revueltas for the 1939 film of the same name, which relates to Mexico's pre-Columbian heritage. Revueltas's score consists of 36 sequences without any organic relation to one another, composed to be easily fitted to an already-edited film. Many of these passages consist of conventional film-music stereotypes designed to underline the story unobtrusively, rather than offer any novelty. An exception is found in some scenes of Yucatecan folklore, where the music takes on aspects of nationalism more characteristic of Revueltas's personal style.
Since Revueltas' death in 1940, the film score has been arranged for performance in the concert hall.
In this version, Limantour "took every imaginable liberty", including the addition of a concluding, extended "improvisation" of exotic percussion instruments which is largely responsible for the music's success with audiences, who erroneously believe it to have been composed by Revueltas himself.
