这系列拉丁美洲合唱音乐将为许多合唱团有机会去了解这类型的音乐，并通过它，来探索我们的传统、我们的节奏、我们的灵魂。
我们介绍Antonio Estevez的作品Mata del anima sola（“寂寞的灵魂树”），灵感是来自Alberto Arvelo Torrealba的一首诗。本曲有两个不同的部分：一部份柔缓和冥静，令一部份轻快，基本节奏是3/4和6/8拍的组合，什具委内瑞拉的传统joropo舞蹈的音乐的特色。本曲是描绘委内瑞拉高原亚诺斯(llanos)的孤独和神秘，而男高音独唱则代表llanero或“人与平原”的交涉的即兴之歌。在joropo部份，合唱团是模仿那些传统上用来为跳舞伴奏的乐器。在男高音和女低音的组合中，是用上了cuatro（四弦小吉他）的节奏，女高音则模仿自然音阶竖琴，而低音吉他则以“低音弦”（bordones）奏出，所有这些都结合起来，作为男高音独唱的伴奏“乐器”。
作曲家Antonio Estevez（1916－1988年）是本世纪主要的第二代委内瑞拉作曲家之一。他身兼合唱和管弦乐指挥家，最主要的作品就是合唱交响乐作品Cantata Criolla，以Alberto Torrealba的诗作骨干，内容描绘的平原上的人和魔鬼之间的决斗。它被列为20世纪最出色的拉丁美洲民族音乐作品之一。诗人Alberto Arvelo Torrealbar（1903－1971年）的诗歌始终是围绕着他的祖国委内瑞拉的平原上的生活和传统。他的诗Florentino y el Diablo （“弗洛伦蒂诺与魔鬼”），被Estevez编在他的作品Cantata Criolla之中，也是他最有名的作品之一，令他饮誉国际。

原文如下：

This series of Latinamerican choral music will provide an opportunity for many choirs to get to know this music and, through it, to discover our traditions, our rhythms and our soul.
From Antonio Estevez we present Mata del anima sola ("Tree of the lonely soul"), a work inspired by a poem of Alberto Arvelo Torrealba. The piece has two distinct sections: one slow and meditative, and the other very quick and rhythmic based on a combined 3/4 and 6/8 meter which is characteristic of a dance called joropo. The music depicts the solitude and mystery of the llanos, the high plains of Venezuela, while the tenor solo represents the llanero or "man of the plains" whose songs are improvised. In the joropo section, the choir imitates the instruments that are traditionally used to play the dance. The altos and tenors have the rhythm of the cuatro (a small guitar with only four strings), the sopranos imitate the diatonic harp, and the basses sing the guitar bordones, all of which combine to provide the "instrumental" accompaniment to the tenor soloist.
The composer Antonio Estevez (1916-1988) was one of the second generation of important Venezuelan composers in this century. A choral and orchestral conductor, his most important work is the Cantata Criolla, a choral symphonic work based on words by Alberto Torrealba which depict the duel between the man of the plains and the devil. It ranks as one of the leading nationalistic works of the 20th century in Latinamerica. The poetry of Alberto Arvelo Torrealbar (1903-1971) is always related to life and traditions in the Venezuelan plains, his motherland. His poem Florentino y el Diablo, used by Estevez in his Cantata Criolla, is his most famous work, one which earned him international recognition.
