Spanish Colonial and Mexican Era historical interpretation is very one-sided without the inclusion of music and dancing. Without the fandangos, fiestas and canciones, interpretation of these eras lacks the breath that the true history had. At any good Spanish Colonial or Mexican-era reenactment or living history event, there is always music in the air and dancing going on.
