Hubby and I went to see Sones De Mexico Friday night at the Dennos Museum. We really enjoyed the music. A little about the group:
"Chicago's premier Grammy Award winning folk music ensemble specializing in Mexican ‘son' including the regional styles of huapango, gustos, chilenas, son jarocho, and more, bring what the Chicago Reader calls "a dazzling array of Mexican folk-music forms with a preservationist's care, bursting with energy." Sones de México's demonstrates how immigrant musicians outside of their home country can not only preserve traditions but push them in new directions. The group dips into Mexico's vast and underexposed son repertoire and integrates everything from rock and folk, to Western classical, providing a musical antidote to limited perspectives on Mexican culture."
The only thing that was missing? Margaritas!
