13 Canciones españolas antiguas is a collection of songs by Federico García Lorca. [1] Lorca didn't think that musical notation did music justice and disliked it for this reason. However, he made five records of arrangements in 1931. "La Argentinita" is accompanied by Lorca at the piano. These recordings are the source the 13 Canciones españolas antiguas draw on.[2]

His refusal to write down his arrangements is in keeping with the history of the oral tradition that so fascinated him. He also disliked the inability of the musical notation to reflect the characteristic microtonal and rhythmic complexities of this music. Fortunately, in 1931 he made five records of his arrangements, sung by La Argentinita and accompanied by himself on the piano; these have been transcribed and performed countless times since.[2]

The first twelve songs were published in 1961; the thirteenth, La Tarara, (canción infantil) was published in 1964.[3]

1. Anda, jaleo
2. Los cuatro muleros
3. Las tres hojas
4. Los mozos de Monléon
5. Las morillas de Jaén
6. Sevillanas del siglo XVIII

8. Nana de Sevilla
9. Los pelegrinitos
10. Zorongo
11. Romance de Don Boyso
12. Los reyes de la baraja
13. La Tarara, canción infantil


Lorca's literary achievements are legend, however, he was a prolific collector, composer as well as a frequent performer of his works. He collected and curated many Spanish folk songs mainly from Andalusia. His 13 Canciones españolas antiguas are well-loved and often performed to the present day.[2]
