MÚSICA E IDENTIDAD LATINOAMERICANA: EL CASO DEL BOLERO INTRODUCCIÓN: EL BOLERO COMO MÚSICA POPULAR El bolero es un género de la música popular de origen Cubano; sus cantantes y compositores han tenido un estrecho vínculo con el pueblo y sus tradiciones. En sus inicios “Muchos de estos creadores populares carecían de formación académica, por lo que sus composiciones las transmitían oralmente, en vez de escribirlas, expresando en ellas sus ideales estéticos”1 sobre el amor, la mujer o los sentimientos patrióticos. La creación musical acompaña el desarrollo de los diferentes grupos humanos, aunque en algunos se desarrolla más que en otros; “…la música es una capacidad común a la especie y se incrementa de acuerdo a la cultura en la que el hombre nace”2; en la medida en que los miembros de una sociedad acostumbran participar en rituales en los que la música este presente la van interiorizando y va sirviendo como identificación de los miembros de ese grupo, que la asocian a una forma de ver la vida, a una manera de entender el mundo.

Mariachi in Your Studio NATS Conference June 2018 Contact Information Monica Fogelquist 619-888-8821 [email protected] A Brief History of Mariachi Music • Mariachi music originated in the region that encompasses the Mexican states of Jalisco, Michoacán, and Colima • The precursor to the modern mariachi dates back to the late 19th century • With an increase in nationalism, mariachi music is catapulted to the forefront of popular culture as a vehicle to unite all regions of Mexico • The music is featured in radio and film and taken abroad • Original configuration: Either guitarrón or harp as bass instrument, two violins, and vihuela • By the 1950s, the mariachi as we know it today had been established: six violins, two trumpets, guitarrón, vihuela, and guitar. *The flute is not part of the standard instrumentation of the mariachi. Who Should You and Your Students Listen to? • Familiarize yourselves with the following artists. As you listen to them, you will notice that each artist tends to focus more on a certain type of song that the mariachi interprets. o Lucha Reyes o Lola Beltrán o Amalia Mendoza o José Alfredo Jiménez o Jorge Negrete o Pedro Infante o Javier Solís o Miguel Aceves Mejía o Antonio Aguilar o “Charro” Avitia o Vicente Fernández o Juan Gabriel o Aída Cuevas o Beatriz Adriana o Linda Ronstadt o Nydia Rojas o Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán o Mariachi Nuevo Tecalitlán o Mariachi Sol de México o Mariachi Reyna de Los Ángeles Important Things to Consider • Language: Studying the Spanish language is critical. The ability to correctly pronounce lyrics is important, but understanding the meaning of the lyrics is what will bring the music to life.

McClary, Co-Chair Professor Timothy Rice, Co-Chair In this dissertation, I engage in the ongoing discussion between popular music and gender scholarship through an ethnographic and archival investigation of women's performances in mariachi music, a musical expression originating in eighteenth-century Western Mexico. Historical evidence and ethnographic accounts referenced in this study reveal that women have indeed performed with mariachi ensembles since at least the turn of the twentieth century. While they were not encouraged to perform as mariachi musicians, those who did were occluded from historical representations or dismissed as trivial or novel. By presenting a critical analysis of women's socio-musical contributions, this dissertation situates the impact of gendered stereotypes in historical, social, and individual contexts. Presenting this analysis, however, calls for first understanding the mariachi tradition historically. As with other popular musics that confronted the coming of the mass media, mariachi music evolved also alongside the globalizing culture industry.
