Description
The Mariachi originated in the region of Jalisco in the city of Guadalajara. At first, the Mariachi ensembles traveled from town to town singing about very common subjects, mostly love. This led to their style spreading throughout all Mexico, and soon it was the highest representative of Mexican music.
A typical Mariachi ensemble was formed by four or five guitars, a "guitarron", violins, some "vihuelas" and a harp with 28 to 40 strings. In some regions of Mexico a small snare drum was commonly included into the ensemble.
