This music has aways given me goosebumps. Later in life I found out this is the music of my abuelos who were Tamaulipecos. This makes me proud of my heritage!

I'm. mexican ad myself was surprised of the whole meaning of this Huasteca culture, I always heard some of this music when I was a kid, back in the 80s and living in the central region of Mexico and familiarized with other type of mexican styles always thought of Huasteca songs as a very diminut or simple music, but as I grew up I learned about traditions and how they come up to be part of life. .and this documentary wonderfully explains this traditional culture! thanks for your work and dedication, this is a great documentary.
Thank You very much for this amazing documentary. I'm an English teacher and a Musician too; as a part of my Job, I've to plan conversation clubs for our students to practice their lenguage skills. Today We're celebrating Mexico's independence Day, So I decided to introduce my students to the huapango's history and I'll show them this video. Once again Thank You so much for such a great work! Viva México!
I am very grateful to have been born there, to try their dried meat with sips of mezcal, I talk about my Huasteca Veracruzana, their trobas and huapanguear. I invite you to huapango festival in my hometown next month of August this year . Tamalin Veracruz Mexico. que viva la huasteca!
This is an interesting documentary about this music. Personally I love love that music, the land and the people even though I wasn´t born there. I just wish it were longer and would cover a wider area of the huasteca. Nowadays the huasteca is said to include part of 6 states, even including the north of the state of Puebla. I wish more people in the US and other English speaking countries saw this. Why not even translating it to other languages? Why not a 2nd. part of the documentary? There´s so much to bring about the huasteca, apart from the music. Good job. Keep up the good work.
@@stinkypatas4life843 There is a song called "Las 3 Huastecas" but in fact there are more, some people say 4 Huastecas the States of Hidalgo, Veracruz, San Luis Potosi and Tamaulipas, but that is not exact. there was or still is a people calle Huastecos and all of the territory that they occupied in ancient or modern times is Huasteco, so in addition to the ones I already mentioned there are parts of Puebla, Queretaro and even the Estado de México that are Huasteca too. now talking about the music, I guess this people had a special sound or feeling that influenced the style of music they like and play because all of the Huasteca music is similar in many aspects and it differs in some other for example some instruments, you can here in youtube look for videos of huasteca veracruzana or hidalguense or others and see and listen yourself.
Huasteca music, according to The Chieftains, merges the original, pre-Columbian music from La Huasteca, with that of the Iberian conqueror/settlers of Celtic origin (Celt-Iberians, natives of Galician regions…) This of course includes tap dancing (similar to that of the Irish) on wooden floors built specifically for this purpose...
One point regarding to the place were the people dance the sones or huapangos Huastecos. In the huasteca region the meaning of such wooden floor is tapanco.
Sólo un punto respecto a la tarima donde se bailan los Sones y Huapangos Huastecos; la tarima se le llama tapanco, La definición del tapanco aplica tanto al entrepiso de madera que se construye en casas con techo de dos aguas (ático), como a la tarima de madera donde se bailan los Sones y Huapangos Huastecos.
While there are many beautiful aspects of the sonos huasteca, one of the important elements seems to have been overlooked, maybe? Or I might just be naive. It's very possible. This vid goes over things I certainly didn't know, so ...gracias for that. But the element your ensemble doesn't highlight is that big-bottomed bass line that alternates between playing on only beats 2 and 3, followed by a sudden eighth rest on the downbeat of the second bar finishing with a strong pluck on the 3rd beat of that bar. It sets my heart on fire. It's a powerful motif when executed properly, but this smaller ensemble and dancing isn't adding that layer of interest to the video. Or I may just be naive, lol. Muchas Gracias por la video.
I recommend that you buy "El Gusto - 40 Años de Son Huasteco". It's a great son huasteco compilation that you can find on iTunes and Amazon. Many songs from that compilation were used in this film.
Claro para hablar del huapango seria imperdonable no escuchar estos tríos legendarios: camperos de valles, trio chicamole, Lázaro Lopes y sus hidalguenses, cantores del panuco, armonía huasteca, Potosinos de chalco, el trio colatlan del tío laco, los hidalguense, trio Tamazunchale!, si señor viva el huapango!
Hicham Tali It´s a fragment of "La Petenera". Other factor about this music is its versatility and dymamic. Lirycs can and vary a lot and every version is unique with a certainty due to the variety of verses, violin playing, and dancers! Musicians can make up verses right on the spot about almost anything. That adds fun to the performance and is a skill not everybody has. It takes years to get to do that.

Emperor Maximiliano remarked famously on how much Mexico's folk music is reminiscent of Viennese and north Austrian folk music.
Irene Deneb I’ve heard and believe for a while that they shared a common ancestor but does this statement prove otherwise?
realmente hermoso!!! orgullosamente de México 😻
This is an interesting documentary about this music. Personally I love love that music, the land and the people even though I wasn´t born there.

+davemanhere Thanks Dave. At the time, I didn't have enough funding to make it longer or cover more areas of Mexico, but maybe someday.
I really enjoyed this video! Thanks for producing and presenting it! I'll be smiling all day...
My late father was from this little town. He loved dancing and I know now why
Excellent little film, Roy, about a subject in which I have long been interested.
Thank you!
Muy muy hermoso!
It brought tears to my eyes! it was the music of my mother from Zimapan Hidalgo the Hidalguense Huapango!
My family is also from Zimapan, Hidalgo
Thought it was from San Luis Potosí and Tamaulipas área

Did you know, Huasteca means mexica water, it comes from «la agua azteca» it derivates La Huasteca.
This is pretty cool!
Me encanto!!!
What first song?

someone could show the playlist of the song developed in this documental?

Pasan por alto que es una influencia negra, hasta en la construcción lírica se basa en décimas, ¡¡igual que en el blues rural!!
hi does anyone know the name of the songs played in the documentary?
They're all listed in the credits starting at 12:39
@@RoyGermano thank you!!!!
The sound of the violin and the melody is quite similar to Dondang Sayang muzik from Malacca,Malaysia. Perhaps you could take a look at it.
Will do. Thx.
Name of the song 2:30
"La Llorona" performed by Trío Tamazunchale. You can find it on the album "El Gusto - 40 Años de son Huasteco", released by Discos Corason.
