Sones de Mexico Ensemble is Chicago’s premier folk music organization specializing in Mexican ‘son,’ a genre encompassing the roots of mariachi music and other regional styles. As a performer and recording artist, they have developed and popularized many original arrangements of Mexican traditional tunes. They have also experimented cross-culturally with symphonic, Irish, folk, blues, C&W, jazz and rock, though never abandoning its roots in Mexican son. This event will take place outdoors, meet us at Laurel Park Rose Garden, between the Library and City Hall. In case of inclement weather, the event will take place indoors. 

Acompáñanos al primer concierto para iniciar la serie de música Note For Note con Sones de Mexico Ensemble, la principal banda de música folclórica mexicana de Chicago desde 1994, con nominaciones a los premios Grammy y Latin Grammy. Sones de Mexico Ensemble se especializa en el son mexicano, un género que abarca las raíces de la música de mariachi y otros estilos regionales. Como intérprete y artista discográfico, han desarrollado y popularizado muchos arreglos originales de melodías tradicionales mexicanas. También han experimentado interculturalmente con música sinfónica, irlandesa, folk, blues, C&W, jazz y rock, sin abandonar nunca sus raíces en el son mexicano.

Este evento se realizará al aire libre, encuéntranos en Laurel Park Rose Garden, entre la Biblioteca y el Ayuntamiento. En caso de lluvia, el evento se llevará a cabo en el primer piso de la Biblioteca.
