Mariachi is a type of Mexican music and a musical group whose style dates back to at least the 18th century. It has distinctive instrumentation, performance, and singing styles, as well as costumery. Many mariachis wear the traje de charro, or horserider’s uniform, complete with large, wide-brimmed hats (sombrero de charro). Typically, mariachis employ guitars, […]
Whether it is a guitar-wielding mariachi on the streets of Tenochtitlan or Mayan trumpeters wandering through the rainforests, music plays a big part in the culture of the Alberian people. And where there is music, there is magic, and where there is magic there are bards. El Mariachi Part wanderer, part observer, and always wise, el […]
