Recommended: Music As Cultural Aspect

I went and saw Mariachi Oro de Mi Tierra performed at the Herreras Salon and it was an amazing experience. The whole audience was just so cheerful, and everybody was having a great time. The Mariachi were dressed in black charro suits, and the instruments they had were violins, guitars, trumpets, vihuela, and guitarron. The whole atmosphere was just so lively, and everybody was dress in party attire. The music they played were dance, romantic, and sentimental songs, and the genres were either ranchera, cumbias or boleros. The songs that made people excited were La Bamba (1958), El Rey (1971), Gema (1959), El Mariachi Loco, La Bikina (1964), and Cielito Lindo (1882).

    Tex-Mex is a fusion of Northern Mexico and Southern Texas culture that initiated some time after the Spanish-American war when Texas was originally a part of Mexico. Tex-Mex can be used to talk about food as well as music, a culture in its own community. Tejano music dates far back into the mid-part of the 19th century, starting with a “more pop-oriented urban form relying on keyboards and synthesizer in place of the accordion.” (Broughton, 2000) It is said that this genre of music initiated when German, Polish, and Czech immigrants introduced the accordion, and from then on, evolved into three subgenres of Tejano music. Something that stands out about Tejano music is its instrumentation and orchestration as seen in conjunto, Banda, and grupo, the three subgenres that emerged throughout the spread of time with the influences of many artists

    Over time Tejano music became my favorite. I feel this music has so much feeling and love in it and at times it makes me emotional. "Corrazon", by Intenso, always reminds me of an old heart break and I no matter what everytime I hear it I have to sing along. Every time I want to feel sad and happy all at once, I turn the radio to a Tejano station. I feel my roots in the music that our culture has created; I don't believe Tejano music could be taken away from me now.

    Salsa, tango, and bachata have very different historic backgrounds, but come from the same culture.

    For Report 9, I chose Ezequiel Peña’s interpretation of the song,”El Alazán y el Rosillo” because I enjoyed his singing style better compared to the other tracks. I enjoyed hearing the way he changed his vocals. As he was singing you could hear the different vowel formation, he would use a combination of back and front vowels. I also had the opportunity to visit a live concert of his on my birthday last year and he knows the way to begin a show. He has people dance on stage, while he is performing. I honestly enjoyed his singing style because he would change the instruments used from banda to mariachi. Attending his concert, is very interesting because he changes the rhythm of music to keep the audience attention. Aside from that I believe

    During my visit, I was able to observe different dances that were very interesting. Two dances that caught my attention were the “Toro Mambo” representing the state of Sinaloa and “Payasos of Tlaxcala” representing Tlaxcala. The “Toro Mambo” from the region of Sinaloa is one of the most popular dances in Mexico.

In this dance the women wear long colorful dresses to represent joy and in order to move the skirts higher. In contrast, the men wear light color shirts and jeans that matches with their partner.

    People do not take into account the impact that colonialism had on Mexico and Mexico’s culture of dance and music. The merging of Indigenous tradition and European culture left a strange mark in Mexico, where both those diverse cultures were combined into its own Mexican identity. There is no bigger example of this than the traditional Mexican dance, of the state of Michoacán el danze de los viejetos or in English the dance of the old men. What the dance used to represent pre and post the conquering by Spain is radically different, since Mexico itself changed through colonization. The dance of the old men is still being danced now but the original meaning and what it represents now has changed,
