Synopsis

Album Description
All the works on this unique album are rediscovered gems by Mexican composers, some famous, some obscure ? but all enjoyable. Founded in 1996, the Alauda Ensemble is a group of young Mexican musicians dedicated to the rescue of forgotten or unpublished music, from the traditional repertoire to Latin American music. Most of the ensemble?s members are pupils of Samuel Máynez Champion, distinguished violinist and professor at the National Conservatory of Mexico since 1994. Máynez studied violin with Henryk Szeryng and Peter Rybar and holds degrees from both the Yale University School of Music and the Verdi Conservatory in Milan. Soprano Minerva Hernandez studied at the National Conservatory, where she now teaches. Her repertoire runs from Baroque through Lied, opera, zarzuela and contemporary music. Pianist Juan Carlos Rodriguez has made two previous CDs with Alauda Ensemble and has performed in all of Mexico?s major cities.
