original description

Mariachi NMPBS 27 min - Apr 25, 2007 Mariachi ensembles provide some of the most distinctive dynamic music of Mexico, and it's currently being heard more and more outside of Mexico. Mariachi music is created by combining violins, trumpets and guitars with two unique stringed instruments, the vihuela and guitarron, which form the rhythm section. The violins and trumped play the melody, and the players also sing. The history of Mariachi goes back to the 1500's in Mexico, when Indian and Europeans began to mix, and were then joined by African slaves. Originally broadcast on New Mexico PBS station KNME.
