These are the songs our grandparents learned as children here in the
Southwest United States. The songs and games in the Lucerito's
Music collection represent children's music from New Mexico and California
gathered since 1966 from relatives, friends, neighbors, musicians,
teachers and old music books. Most of the songs are over 100 years old and
are currently being sung by Spanish speaking children throughout the
Spanish speaking world. I suspect that most of the songs and games came
with the Spanish conquistadors as early as 1492. The songs and games
recorded by Stanley A. Lucero are in use in many bilingual and ESL
classrooms throughout the Southwest. They are excellent gifts for the
children and grandchildren in your life. In addition to children's music, we have recorded several popular and traditional songs for your enjoyment.

California in addition to the COSECHA Conferences in New Mexico.
Mr. Lucero learned how to play guitar from his friend, college roommate and co musician, Ronnie Vigil, from San Cristobal. Ronnie was taught how to play the mandolin by his father, Cleofas Vigil, at the age of three. Cleofas Vigil played mandolin and sang the alabados for the San Cristobal Penintentes. Here is a short power point presention about New Mexico Music.
