This is the piano accompaniment for the Mexican folk song “La calle de la paloma” as arranged by Edward Kilenyi for low voice. It is written in the key of F Major with a vocal range of C4-E5. This song is a perfect cultural reference; often in Latin America, friends and family members give each other silly nicknames which may be based on events that the person has no control over. In the case of the singer of this song, the girl is nicknamed “Dove” for being born on Dove Street. This song was arranged in the year of 1914 and comes from the area around Mexico City. It was one of the first attempts to transcribe Mexican folk material for concert performance. The full score can be found in The Vocal Library “Anthology of Spanish Song.” Performed by Wendy Hellmann.
