!Canta Conmigo! is a practical guide for music educators looking to
teach music from Central America. Suitable for use in families,
schools, or community centers, this resource contains a playful
collection of 90 songs, singing games, chants, and games author
Rachel Gibson learned from teachers, children, and families while
living in several communities in both countries. While the majority
of the songs are in Spanish, the book also includes a few in a
Mayan language, Kaqchikel. A comprehensive companion website offers
field video, audio recordings, and select song histories to help
readers witness the music in authentic contexts. Ethnographic
descriptions of locations where songs were learned and personal
biographies written by the singers in Kaqchikel or Spanish and
translated to English allow the reader to develop a connection to
the land and the musicians. Culturally responsive and sustaining
teaching pedagogies are discussed alongside strategies to
responsibly include the music into school curriculums. A brief
history of Central America and an overview of music genres in the
region are included to frame this song collection within historic,
cultural, and musical contexts. !Ven a cantar y jugar! Come sing
and play!
