ResumoAgain and again, Chilean and Latin American musicologists have considered the zamacueca as simply the predecessor of the cueca, a well-known regional dance. Having done a thorough critical revision and recent edition of original scores from the nineteenth century, the authors propose a different perspective on the zamacueca as in constant transformation during the period. Considering the different practices alluded to in the scores, from salon performances to virtuoso concerto fantasias, we interrogate several features of the scores, showing that there is not a single structure or ideal for the zamacueca in the nineteenth century. Going back to the long-unasked question about the sound of the zamacueca, we propose going beyond the traditional national and folkloric readings of it in Peru and Chile to observe the multiple changes in its porous identity.
