The Huapango always gives me goosebumps and this version rocks my world.
I really liked the very original parts like the zapateo and the fact that the ensemble sounds like a much larger orchestra.
I think the interlude probably needs to be softer, more harp and less guitars, it sounds too mariachi like. The flute also makes it sound too pre-hispanic, nothing to do with a huapango.
All in all it's a really great version. Should get a lot more views and comments. Felicidades.
