El Rey de la Huasteca | Violin Solo

Показать описание
I made this for Father's day and I wasn't really going to post it but I have to say, it's very rare that I get to share a bit of my culture so here it is ♥️

My dad loves a style of music called "Son Huasteco" that was born in the territory of the Huastec Civilization, which is vaguely the coast of Mexico (Veracruz and so on). Very long story short, it is a combination of our ancestors' musical traditions and the European influences from the colonial era. This is the reason why a relatively modern instrument like the "violin", became essential to the "Son Huasteco". It is still considered a type of Mariachi Music so you may have heard similar music. However, this particular style is characteristic of very fast and virtuoso playing, especially from the "fiddler".

Just like one could say that certain styles of celtic music may be the fiddle of Ireland or Scotland, the "Son Huasteco" is in many ways, the "fiddle" of Mexico☺️

I'm not exactly a Huastec fiddler myself so if anyone comes from that long tradition of fiddle playing, let me know if you have any tips or suggestions! 😉

Note: I added some double stops in the solo because I had to play it on my own and I didn't have a Guitarrón to play along with me haha. The original piece doesn't have some of those extra notes.

Fun fact: I had never actually played Mariachi Music in Mexico. My first time playing it was funnily enough, here, in Canada 🤣

Piece: El Rey de la Huasteca

estoy intentando entar al mundo del mariachi como violinista y me encanto tu video, tristemente no hay mucho de donde ver o agarrar, no hay videos que hablen del estilo o de los basicos, ni de las rolitas mas de cajon
