Product Description

An arrangement for Brass Quintet of the Puerto Rican Commonwealth Anthem. "La Borinqueña" is a reference to the original native inhabitants word for the island "Boriken" or "Borinquen". The music was first composed in 1867 as a dance, with romantic lyrics. The revolutionary and poetess Lola Rodríguez de Tió wrote words to accompany it the following year, but they were deemed too subversive to be adopted by the government, so new ones were written by Manuel Fernández Juncos. (The original lyrics are used by the independentist movement). The anthem was officially adopted in 1952 on becoming a Commonwealth of the United States, but the lyrics werent made official until 1977.
