El Llano Grande

El Llano Grande is a traditional son jalisciense with its distinctive sesquialtera (alternating of 3/4 and 6/8) rhythms in the armonía section. It is customary not to change meters in the score, but feel the rhythmic alteration from the way the music is notated. It is important that violins should play broadly, with the bow flat on the string, while the trumpets play very staccato. This contrast creates the characteristic feel of the son.
