Hi everyone, I created 20 original romantic Mariachi serenades. The album is called 'Noches de Jalisco'. I'd be honored if you gave it a listen and shared your thoughts. Which song do you like best? Mine is Luna, Guitarras y Tu Voz. 💬👇

Hey guys I just finished my first year of college and have been wanting to start a mariachi since I arrived here. I have always loved mariachi music and frequently do karaoke while listening to Vicente Fernandez or romantic songs.

The goal of the mariachi would be to build a community on campus to appreciate culture and just have a good time getting to know each other through music. I’m such a hopeless romantic so I mostly would have serenata repertoire. Then students around campus contact us for special events, pranks, special someone’s, etc.

So far: I have downloaded a ton of files onto a Google drive from MariachiScore and tried composing an arrangement for “Hasta Donde Te Quiero” since I couldn’t find one for trumpet/violin/guitar/bass.

Does anyone have any advice for starting a mariachi, how to be able to teach while also learning things myself? Things I should know or how to have a successful one?

Hello, I started a mariachi with my friends a little while ago, and aj was wondering if anyone knew where we could get some affordable trajes, in California. I have seen some websites like, la Casa del mariachi, el charrito tailor shop and el Charro1, but unsure, any recommendations?

So im asking this girl out and i want to give her a serenata but since im new to this and haven't done one before im not sure what songs are commonly used except for:
Sabes Una Cosa - Luis Miguel
Amarte a la Antigua - Pedro Fernandez
Hermoso Carino - Vicente Fernandez
Si Nos Dejan - Luis Miguel
Hasta Donde Te Quiero
It would really help if i got some other suggestions of songs to use for the serenata that are either commonly used or just fit the vibe. Also if anyone out there is willing to put the songs in order so it flows better than i'll be very grateful for that aswell. im not sure if the songs flowing together matters or if im just overthinking it either way let me know please. Lastly im wondering what song to open up with and my leading choice at the moment is Sabes Una Cosa. Thank you ❤️

I need some help buying a vihuela. I know vihuela tv has some but I’m wondering if there’s other luthiers or maybe even stores that have selection? I live in San Diego so I could go to Tijuana if there’s anything recommended there

Hi everyone! I'm currently studying harp at the moment, playing an Irish harp. Lately, I've been learning songs from Mexico. I love the sound of the Veracruz harp, but I don't know where to find a good quality one.

Any recommendations? Dusty Strings has a harp called La Serrana. Mariachiclothingcompany.com, USMusicstore.com, and Morales also sell harps.

Does anyone have any experience w these harps or these sites?

Thank you so much!!

¡Hola a todos! Actualmente estudio arpa y al momento toco un arpa irlandesa. Últimamente he estado aprendiendo canciones de México. Me encanta el sonido del arpa veracruzana, pero no sé dónde encontrar una de buena calidad.

¿Alguien tiene experiencia con alguna de estas arpas?

Hello im looking for sheet music for the song “Desden” composed by Ermilo Alfonso Padron, specifically in a key that a higher pitched female voice can suit.

I am saving up to buy an arpa jalisciense. My limit would be around $1800-2200 USD.
