This composition is a Chilean ‘Cueca,‘ which is a dance found in many South American countries that is de rived from the Spanish ‘Jota’ and contains several elements from the ‘Fandango.‘ There are many different styles of ‘Cuecas’, depending on the nature of the texts or the region from which they come. However the rhythm is mostly written in 6/8, alternating sometimes with 3/4, and in minor keys, and it is danced in single and independent couples. Because of its melancholic character, this ‘Cueca’ is thought to have derived from the Peruvian ‘Yaraví’ and it comes from the province of Sucre and was composed in the times of the Chaco war (that occured between Bolivia and Paraguay in 1932–1935). Most of the authors who composed texts and popular tunes in this period are anonymous. The instruments that accompany the ‘Cueca’ are generally guitar, bombo and charango.
