Ratita
“Little Mouse” – Carnivalito (Carnival Dance from Deni and Sta. Cruz), Bolivian folk music. From the album “Folklore de Bolivia, Vol. 2” (1994) by Ukamau, led by Hery Cortes.
*The original version is played on Zampoñas, a reed pipe, known in Europe as pan flute. Since it takes time to physically move from one pipe to the next, the melody is split between two players to create a continuous musical line.
Arr. Robert Hokamp
Naquele Tempo
“In that time” (1946), Brazilian choro by Pixinguinha (1897-1973), Brazilian flutist, saxophonist, composer, and conductor.
Arr. Robert Hokamp

From the Los Destellos album Sicodélicos (1968).
We originally learned this song with a different band, Los Patos Poderosos, back in 2015. Patos existed in several incarnations, and Robert, Alyse, and Connor played together in that group.
Arr. Robert Hokamp
