ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In this episode: A road trip to Xico. A stampede of cattle bells. The fandango's origins in the formless void of the universe? 'A letter written with the blood from my heart.' The indigenous La Bamba. Bringing a pistol to a bow-tying dance. The afterlife of Renaissance instruments in the Mexican tropics. The fandango as a global movement.
