The biggest mariachi music pageant in the US occurred this summer time on the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. The thirty third annual MARIACHI USA centered a style that is rooted in folks traditions and has grow to be an emblem of Mexican tradition. The present honored Vicente Fernández, an icon of ranchera music, and highlighted songs made in style by the legend.
The lineup featured an array of performers, together with Grammy award-winning Mariachi Divas, Mariachi Estrella de México, Mariachi Los Reyes, Mariachi Lindas Mexicanas and Mi Tierra Ballet Folklórico. Silvia Estrada and Mayra Martinez of the Mariachi Lindas lately sang back-up to Omar Apollo‘s tune “En El Olvido” throughout his Tiny Desk concert.
“Rancheras is a music style that dates again to early 1900s (some say early 1800s), thus will probably be like great-grandma singing Las Mañanitas to grandma, ” stated Rodri Rodriguez, the pageant’s founder, producer and host. She created the occasion to offer mariachi a discussion board for creative expression and a strategy to rejoice the wealthy musical traditions that so many have come to get pleasure from.
