Fiesta!

Fiesta!, by Jorge Vargas, captures the spirit of a joyful celebration in Mexico, perhaps in a small town or even a large city. The Latin rhythms evoke the excitement that people feel as they are surrounded by laughter, joy, food, and music. Fiesta! contains many Mexican folk rhythms that are common in mariachi music, which makes this a perfect piece to introduce your students to the music of Mexico. (2:05)
