Notes

The music of Templo Mayor (Main Temple) was entirely composed and played with ancient Mesoamerican instruments and ethnic Mexican instruments.

In these recordings no electronic effect has been added, except the over-dubbing of individual channels, and some echoes to create a balance between the different instruments, as well as the desired atmosphere.

The various bird voices and the sounds of wind and water have been created only with pre-Columbian musical instruments without any special effect or electronic gadget.

The music of Templo Mayor compiles recordings made for the following documentary films: Coyolxauqui ; Light and Sound at la Venta, Tabasco and Light and Sound at the Main Temple . The album was originally released in 1982.

Recording dates: March 1979, January 1980 and July 1982
Recording Studios: Publiservicios, Mexico City
Digitally mastered at the studios of Global in Mexico City, January 2000.
