🎶Hispanic Heritage Month🎺 Mariachi music has origins deep in Mexican history. "Mariachi" means a certain repertoire of music, a special grouping of instruments, and a distinctive style of singing creating an unmistakable sound. It has special meaning for many Mexican Americans as a symbol of their cultural heritage and a source of pride. This home movie from 1990 features the Herrera Family of El Paso having a party in their backyard, complete with a mariachi band, and dancers. #hispanicherita
