This rendition of Virgen de los Dolores is from a Libro
titled: Coleccion de Cantos Sagrados Populares, para uso de las
Iglesias, seminarios y colegios catolicos, con Acompanamiento,
Editorial Progreso 1952, Mexico. John Warren of the New
World Baroque Orchestra has this book.
This may be the song mentioned in the diary of Fray Pedro Font on
Tuesday, October 24, 1775 when he describes the burial of the woman
who died in childbirth. He writes, "We set out from La Canoa and
halted at Punta de los Llanos... On the way the people and I went
saying the Rosary for the deceased, and I finished by singing the
Salve of the Virgin of Los Dolores..."
