Visiting the Tepeyac

The Virgin of Guadalupe, a vision of Mary, allegedly appeared on Mexico City's Tepeyac Hill in the early 16th century, which has made this "place of many miracles" the subject of much songcraft over the years. This playlist unites many local folk styles—son huasteco, mariachi, indigenous woodwinds, choral music, etc.—to pay divine musical tribute to the holy site and its Madonna.
