      They do! I believe it started 2021-2022 school year.
      There are some videos online of the All-State Mariachi concert.

    • @ericmpena
      @ericmpena  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I wish I could have posted this sooner. I didn’t get the etudes until a week ago. Next year I’ll be sure to get the etudes right when they release and make a video.
      For the vocal etudes, I’m not much of a vocalist…but I could make a video playing the music on trumpet so you can at least hear the pitches and style. You’ll need to add the lyrics yourself though.
      Let me know if that’s something you’re interested in.

    Beautifully played! However, that piece is far easier than the Georgia 1980 audition music. No hi Cs at all. Wow! There really is not much variation in tempo. I would have loved it. Is this Junior high? Again, the player did amazing!

    • @ericmpena
      @ericmpena  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Thanks for the comment! I’m actually the player in the recording. This audition music was for the Texas All-State Mariachi for High School. I was not auditioning, I am a professional mariachi based out of Austin, TX.
      In traditional mariachi music, it is rare that the music ever goes above a high B. Mariachi music tends to be scale and arpeggio heavy, which is why these etudes are written this way.
      I agree about the difficulty. I learned this piece in maybe 2 hours and had it ready for recording in a day.
      Classical etudes require a greater amount of control and endurance.
      If you see my other videos, there are a few classical etudes that I’ve recorded. The purpose of this video was not to bring attention to the difficulty of mariachi etudes, but simply for the students to have a reference on style.
      The All-State mariachi etudes are unique and written from scratch every year, unlike classical etudes where you can find multiple recordings for reference online. That’s why I took the time to record this.

    Very nice recording! Are you double tonguing or single tonguing the 16th notes?

    • @ericmpena
      @ericmpena  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The 16th at the beginning and ending are double tongue. I used single tongue during the slower, middle section.

    That quintuplet feel at 0:47 is so sick!! Is that a common mariachi thing?

    • @ericmpena
      @ericmpena  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      It’s actually not very common to find that specific rhythm in mariachi! You can get a similar style with 6/8 timing…but I believe the challenge of this quintuplet is to make it NOT sound like a 6/8 measure.

    how is your tone so bright? mine rn is sort of a smoky jazzy tone which i hate. any help?

    • @ericmpena
      @ericmpena  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It could be a few things that are making you sound too dark, such as a large mouthpiece or heavy trumpet.
      Long tones are boring but they’re great for dialing in the tone that you want.
      Adam Rapa has a good video on this explaining how to find the most open tone. You can do this with notes in the staff, no need to play anything crazy high.
