Recording of Igor de Gandarias' La Feria Fantástica. This work was realized at the University of Maryland Electronic Music Studio using a Fairlight Series III station. The sound sources come from live recordings made in 1991 during the celebration of the most important popular feast in Guatemala City, called “Feria de Jocotenago” (Jocotenango’s fair). The feast, dedicated to celebrate the city’s patron anniversary (Virgin of the Assumption), takes place in August every year, enduring the complete month. Its activities contain not only religious ceremonies and processions with their particular musical environment (choirs and processional bands) but folk dances, food, games and entertainment. The recordings include: voices of a children's choir and voices of congregated people singing into the church, Indian speaking voices, snare drum processional patterns and rolls, a popular processional band piece, and a traditional Indian marimba piece which accompanies popular Indian dances during the procession. The sound of rhythmic patterns played on the rattles by the dancers; electronic games, church bells and the little bell of an ice-cream vendor were also recorded at the fair. Other sounds coming from three musical toys, which are usually on sale on these feasts, were recorded in studio.
