This is fine example of a Ragtime arrangment very few exist out there. And even fewer examples of Vintage Marimba or Xylophone percussionist from the 19 teens era. I hope you enjoy this presentation. And as always leave comments and sugguestions.

  • where did you find that picture at the very beginning. the hurtado brothers are actually my great great uncles and I know my family has been looking for more pictures.

  • @StephInSD619 I can no longer find the wedsite that had that picture but a found a copy on an old back up, i can send it you if you would like.

  • How did you find this recording? It would be very interesting to remaster such a jewel to digital format.

  • @BrisaIzabalense An old lady that was dumping them in a dumdster behind a pawn shop

  • Hermosura joya musical y patrimonio cultural de Guatemala que finura de interpretacion

  • Hi; Nice tune! I have thousands of xylophone and marimba 78 rpm recordings - so in some parts of the world they're not that rare! I even have a couple of Octarimba records, and even Marimbaphone!

  • Amazing!!... vintage marimba at its finest!!

    Growing up in Guatemala (Chiquimula)I used to listen to marimba music live and on the radio... and they would always play something by Marimba de los Hermanos Hurtado. I always enjoyed it.

    Toda una joya musical. Yo no sabia que esta grabacion existia. Muchas gracias por ponerla aqui. Thank you very much indeed, for sharing it with us.
