La Jesusita Duet

Notes from the Composer:

La Jesusita: Duet

La Jesusita is a traditional Mexican folk tune that describes a festive evening dance outside where many lanterns are glowing: "Vamos al baile y verás que bonito donde se alumbran con veinte linternas. ." Jesusita is apparently a charming senorita at the dance. The duet is set with challenging and interesting cross-rhythms between the 1st and 2nd accordion played over a complementary bass line.
