# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Date recorded: 1967
Contributor(s): Performer: Unidentified man; Performer: Mora, Brígido; Recordist: Lomax, Alan

Physical form: Reel to Reel

Note: This is an aguinaldo that would be played from house to house at Christmas time in exchange for a meal of roast pork. Here it is accompanied by a merengue típico trio although the tambora rhythm changes towards the end of the piece from a merengue derecho to something like a palos rhythm.

Belongs to: Dominican Republic 1967

About the session: There are few notes on these recordings. Several of the performers announce that they are from the town of Sabaneta, but there are about a dozen places with this name in the Dominican Republic so the region is uncertain. Although the first few tracks are played by a Cibao-type accordion group, merengue típico cibaeño has been popular in other regions as well since at least the 1950s. The largest town called Sabaneta is near the capital, so they may have been recorded there.
