With its well-known patronage of the arts, a one hundred year old history of Mexican immigration, and the second largest Mexican immigrant population in the United States, Chicago was fertile ground for the ensemble’s development. Through the years, the ensemble has amassed a large collection of folk musical instruments representative of Mexico’s diverse local cultures and a team of multi-instrumentalist musicians. Their diverse repertoire, rich in colors, textures, and rhythms demonstrates that there is more to Mexican music than mariachi. Their concerts entertain the senses and illustrate the mind. The ensemble is also a non-profit organization with an educational mission and has exposed thousands of school children and adults across the nation to the riches of Mexican music, dance and culture. The group has released five CDs, all of which are represented in tonight’s program. The group’s third compact disc, Esta Tierra Es Tuya (This Land Is Your Land), released in 2007, received many accolades, including a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Mexican-American Album, and a Latin GRAMMY® nomination for Best Folk Album. In 2010 the group released Fiesta Mexicana: Mexican Songs & Stories for Niños & Niñas and their Papás & Mamás, a double-CD dual-language album aimed at children of all ages who are growing up in a bilingual world, and ¡Viva la Revolución!, a commemorative tribute to the Centennial of the Mexican Revolution of 1910.
