The sound of the drums is to strong for the song " El Cascabel " It restricts the rhythm of the music by slowing it down . The music to began has a fast rhythm and a slow down of its own. The Drums also takes away the wild untame of the rhythm that has alegrea, bravia and sentimiento. Other than that i's all right.
What an amazing sound!! I saw Linda Ronstadt's band do this once and it was amazing as well, but I think this version is one of the best I've ever seen. Some day, I'll play it too!!!
growing up with this music vie loved this song above all. but i've never known what its talkin about. sad to hear my fav song at every restaurant but never know what its about. can someone please tell me!
I Love This Song Sooo Much!!!!! :D We're playing it in our schools mariachi (well our class is trying but progessing promisingly) we're not the best (we're beginers) but we're gonna play it next year for sure! :)
Soy mexicana y constantemente estoy conociendo música nueva de mi México lindo y querido, y no me canso de sorprenderme de el amplio repertorio musical que tenemos en México....
Hey guys! I am the guitarron (bass) for Mariachi Luz de Luna. I want to say thank you to all of you who appreciate our music as well as our collaboration with Calexico. Gracias a todos ustedes que apoyan el mariachi. Yo soy el guitarronero del grupo. Aunque no naci en Mexico, tengo orgullo ser mexicano!
Para el pendejo de mancha02, en que momento hay arrogancia por parte del mariachi??? en donde la ves??? el hecho de tocar con Calexico podria hacerlos sentir arrogantes, sin embargo no veo en ningun momento arrogancia, estas bien pendejo...
Aunque tocan muy bien, la arrogancia que resalta de este conjunto no es la manera correcta en la que un mariachi se deveria de presentar. Buenos musicos, pero presentacion muy mala.
Excelente, ni más ni menos. Los mexicanos nos sentimos muy orgullosos de estes grupos musicales, que en conjunto, tienen las mejores interpretaciones musicales.
Not only do I LOVE this tune, it is one of the coolest songs ever created as it is meant to be sung as is, but also to be continued with the addition of improvised verses as the singer sees fit. Naturally, this depends on the talent of whoever is singing.
The mariachi is obviously Mexican. Calexico, the band, is very much from Tucson, Arizona, USA (thank you very much!) and together they reach a level of hybridity that makes my little heart soar!
Esta padrisimo, mariachis can play be the most happy uplifting music or the most melancholic and heal the broken hearts. is the guy who sings the falsete at the end is british? if he is, very good!
Esta padrisimo, mariachis can play be the most happy uplifting music or the most melancholic and heal the broken hearts. The guy who sings the falsete at the end is british, right? very good!!!
This video is on my favorites! It is so awesome to watch. My husband is a music teacher at an elementary school in Houston. He teaches piano, guitar and what was a Rondalla once has slowly been transforming into a Mariachi upon principal's request. He was inspired by your viedo and just started teaching Cascabel to his students. They are pretty good. Congrats, everyone in it plays incredibly great!
@doloresvb1 I am in a Mexican folk dancing group at the UCSC campus and I must say if you are interested you should look to see if you can teach them some of the steps- its one of the most amazing songs to dance and dancing is one of the best ways to empower students!
i LOVE it when they add a sort of modern form to the traditional mariachi..!! jaja cascabel is such an awesome song to play with alot of different rithoms...me encanta el mariachi y esta cansion es unas de mis favoritas jaja
estos jovenes son unos musicos talentosos y quisiera q un dia llegaria a su leval..!!
Magnífica interpretación de El cascabel, a cargo de jóvenes músicos talentosos, y verdaderamente profesionales. Orgullo grande para nosotros los mexicanos.
I agree Sojoz4 this guys have no pride when they play . I saw the ones Los caballeros from croatia they are even better than some mariachis from mexico.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's a mess with this group using 3- different drums a regular guitar and one guy waving a rag ,they were off beat at times but if your not mexican you would not notice it. . Also some guys had no mariachi uniforms. Yelling at the end thats no falsete.
@sojoz4: Try to understand what types of groups are playing here --- a mariachi band and an English band. They do a marvelous job of melding the two groups. Especially when one considers the audience is British. I really enjoyed it.
@Lenchito, however the Brits may skew from parts of the USA politically, they've always been receptive to great music from the Americas. The jazz and blues pioneers of the 50's and 60's found friendship and support there, many great British musicians took the blues back to White America over the following decades and much of the music from the central and southern Americas are equally well regarded today. This is a good example of all that.
@dkgazinya If you really want to see a real Mariachi play Cascabel out side of Mexico from Europe take a look at this guys from the country of Croatia - " Los Caballeros"- cascabel." That will tell you why I like a good Mariachi and don't care where they are from as long as they have repect for the song and play it the way it should.
I love the Mariachi sound. It's good for the blood. It gives me chills.
I became familiar with Calexico quite a few years ago. Saw them play in Philadelphia. Marrying Calexico and top-shelf Mariachi was bound to happen. Thanks so much for posting this.
Interesting! I recognized some familiar faces from Mariachi Luz de Luna.
El Cascabel is not a traditional "mariachi" song. It has been adapted with many different arrangements to pretty much being a mariachi standard. It is originally a "son jarocho" from the state of Veracruz.
WONDERFUL
