The dancers get most of the press, but the musicians are some of the unsung heroes of all the Guelaguetza performances. And, I have to say, yesterday the Banda Oro Blanco at the Guelaguetza at “Las Peñitas” in Reyes Etla played a leading role. And the view wasn’t bad either!
What can I say about this clarinet player? At one point he played off a fake book on a smart phone and he was on fire!!!
Super photos!
Thanks! This year, there wasn’t a lona, so the colors were crisp and the views unobstructed. Eventually (when there’s a break in the action!) I’ll post photos of the dancers with the Nacho Libre church in the background. 😉
