Luis Espinosa Alcalá
José Luis de Gonzaga Espinosa de los Monteros y Alcalá better known as Luis Espinosa-Alcalá was a Mexican poet, songwriter, and music promoter.
Espinosa-Alcalá is considered the "Mayab's Musical Landscaper" due to his delicate use of ecphrasis to describe, for example, how one walks over a red carpet of Flamboyant tree flowers or sits on a bench in the central park of Mérida, Yucatán to enjoy the surrounding :wikt:ambience|ambience. Many of his songs have become classics in regional music, such as "A Yucatán", "Mérida Colonial", "Guitarrita Yucateca", and "Flamboyán del Camino". Among his other well-known songs are "Ríe", "Silencio Azul" and "La Tormenta". Espinosa-Alcalá released under the Orbit Musical record label nearly 40 albums, including both his own songs and many others of musicians from the Yucatán Peninsula.
