I found this song on Youtube and it is played by the Mariachi band named Mariachi Vargas De Tecalitlan. I chose this song because my research paper was on mariachi music and this particular band was an important part of mariachi music, being one of the first mariachi bands. The band was founded in 1897 and continues playing today under various directors to keep the tradition strong. This song in particular came out in 1990 and is about loving a woman and this song is a serenade to her. We hear many trumpets, vihuelas, violins, and guitars. The vocalist has a strong voice with a lot of emotion and does many gritos as well. The song has consistent dynamics, being loud throughout the entire song. The instrumentation allows the voice to shine and sometimes the instrumentalists bring their voices in to create a chorus for particular phrases.
