La Doble (SATB) Traditional / Arr. Ruben Urbiztondo

A chacarera is a very joyful dance from the Province of Santiago del Estero (northwestern part of Argentina). Separate couples dance with their hands up, making "castanets" with their fingers. Between the first and second verses and again between the second and third verses, there is an instrumental interlude called vuelta, which means "round." At this time the dancers make a round in a circle and then back to their original places.
