A Latin Christmas

A medley of two Christmas songs from Mexico and the Catalan section of the Iberian Peninsula: "Las Posadas" and "Fum, fum, fum."  The first tune, "Las Posadas," is a nine-day celebration with origins in Spain, now celebrated chiefly in Mexico, Guatemala and parts of the Southwestern United States.  "Fum, fum, fum" is thought to have originated in the 16th or 17th century.  Scored with the option to play with the band arrangement.
