La Barca de Oro

Description

Violin 1, Violin 2, Trumpet 1, Trumpet 2, Voice, Armonía, Vihuela, Guitar, Guitarrón — La Barca de Oro (The Golden Boat) is a Mexican folk song from the late 1800's and is arranged here in ranchera lenta style. The vocals are optional so the piece can also be performed as an instrumental feature. If there is a vocalist, violins can alternate between the first and second parts to avoid doubling the voice. The trumpet 1 part can be transposed an octave lower at the beginning if the notes are too high, making this lovely traditional melody accessible to players of all levels.
