"Estampas Criollas," composed by Uruguayan composer, pianist, and teacher Beatriz Lockhart, is a vibrant and colorful representation of South American musical traditions. Each movement of the piece is based on a different Latin American dance (Merengue, Bambuco, Waltz, and Joropo). Originally written for chamber orchestra, this version was scored for clarinet quartet by the renowned Latin-American clarinetist Jorge Montilla.
