Program Notes

Every year for the past 305 years the Fiestas de Santa Fe (N.M.), the oldest civic celebration in the United States, has been reenacted, celebrated and blessed with descendants of the original Spanish settling families of Santa Fe along with our newcomers to the area. One special song [The Santa Fe Fiesta Song] is sung out loud on the plaza most of the week starting from the burning of Zozobra to the closing mass at St. Francis Cathedral Basilica which the music was written by Billy Palau and the Spanish Lyrics were written by Johnny Valdes, Jr.
