If the orchestration [of Sinfonia India] seems a little odd, well, Chavez was not much of a composer. He was the only Mexican composer that I had ever heard of during my studies, but arriving in Mexico I was surprised to learn that his music is almost never played in Mexico, basically because it sucks. Revueltas is Mexico's real gift to classical music.
Wow! And here all these years I have actually liked Chavez's music. How embarrassing!
