Los Cenzontles Productions proudly releases a new corrido that tells the story of the 1775-76 colonizing expedition that founded the San Francisco Presidio. In partnership with the National Park Service, El Corrido de Anza is intended to educate and engage people about our shared history.
A corrido is a popular narrative song that tells stories of heroism and tragedy in an engaging and emotive manner. El Corrido de Anza is available as a video with real time English captions. It joins the Los Cenzontles production catalog of media that raises awareness about our rich cultures, heritage and legacy.
Watch/Listen to El Corridor de Anza. (youtube) We hope you enjoy it! For information on how to use the song for educational purposes, contact e-mail us.
