Do you mean Juan García Esquivel?; more information will be useful.

There is also a website of Armengol where it has a link to his Daughters email or there used to be. This is how I ordered the Danzas. Keep in mind that the order was kinda expensive because she wanted bank transfer as the payment method which adds 30 - 40 dollars to the purchase so I would suggest buying as much as you can when you do order.

RE: Armengol

I have been writing to Patricia for the past few weeks with no avail. Just wondering if there are other ways of ordering besides directly through her. Who is the publisher or are they printed/published by the family?

Yes. Are there any other well-known Mexican composers of that name? It doesn't seem any more ambiguous than 'Beethoven' on a German thread.

Yes, Sergio Esquivel, also composer( and singer):

…and Juan García Esquivel (January 20, 1918 – January 3, 2002) often simply known as Esquivel!, was a Mexican band leader, pianist, and composer for television and films. He is recognized today as one of the foremost exponents of a sophisticated style of largely instrumental music that combines elements of lounge music and jazz with Latin flavors. Esquivel is sometimes called "The King of Space Age Pop" and "The Busby Berkeley of Cocktail Music." Esquivel is considered one of the foremost exponents of a style of late 1950s-early 1960s quirky instrumental pop that became known (in retrospect) as "Space Age Bachelor Pad Music".

You will be the first to know when I have finished my "Grande Fantasie sur le theme du 'Mucha Muchacha'".

Now I understand, you mean Juan García Esquivel "Mucha Muchacha", it is a kind of rumba; you will need a lot of imagination for your Fantasie, the theme repeats over and over again.
