Tucson International Mariachi Conference - Viernes Abril 25, 2008




Espectacular Concert
Friday, April 25, 2008 at 7.30 pm at the TCC Arenastarring Lucero This year's headliner is Lucero, returning to Tucson after an 8 year hiatus. Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan, Mariachi Los Camperos de Nati Cano and Mariachi Los Arrieros join her in what will be a star-studded Espectacular Concert. She is a multi-talented performer who started her entertainment career at the age of 10 in the television series Alegrias de Mediodia. She has starred in movies, recorded albums, hosted a TV show, was the voice of Jane in the Spanish dubbing of the 1999 version of Walt Disney’s animated movie Tarzan, has starred in telenovelas and has won the TVyNovelas Award for Best Actress four times, the last time in 2006. Her 19th album (second live album) Lucero En Vivo Auditorio Nacional was released in Sept 2007 in double format and is her 7th mariachi album (the first disc contains the pop music and the second one has the mariachi segment from the concert).
Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán has the distinction of being the world´s premier mariachi. It has held that reputation since the 1950s when it was lead by Don Silvestre Vargas, son of founder Gaspar Vargas. Since the early days, Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán has continued to play traditional Mexican songs though they are now mixed with some incredible compositions of light classical works and potpourri that delight audiences everywhere. The classical influence can be attributed largely to Ruben Fuentes, the group´s musical director. The group´s collective instrumentation, versatility and talent results in flawless, elegant and delightful performances.
The group started in 1964 and was soon known as one of the premiere mariachi ensembles in the United States and Mexico. As the word of their talent and performances spread, they became known as one of “the” bands that set the standard for what traditional mariachi should be. Even today the talent of the band and how they play together marks a clear path for aspiring mariachi bands to follow. With the leadership of Nati Cano and Jesus Guzman, another arranger in the band, Mariachi Los Camperos de “Nati” Cano is credited for taking mariachi music from the streets of Mexican culture to some of the most highly regarded concert halls in the world.
Tickets range in price from $46 - $86 and can be purchased from the TCC Box Office, or by calling TicketMaster at (520) 321-1000 or by completing the ticket order form and mailing in with payment.

El churrito ya prepara su corse, para poder lucir con buena figura en el festival del Mariachi.

El microfono, lo lleva puesto, desde Los Angeles, en comodo y estrategico sitio que porta con ligereza y sin notarse. Es un telefono de 8 pulgadas de largo y dos de ancho.
La ultima vez, olvido apagarlo al guardarlo y ya terminado el festival.
