The Mexican Music you didn’t know about | La Marimba de Chiapas
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 кві 2022
- The Marimba is not an instrument that usually comes to mind when we think of Mexican music but in Chiapas it is the state instrument and a beloved tradition. In this video we visit Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas to learn more about the origin of the Marimba.
We have been excited to visit Chiapas because of its coffee, beautiful nature, and vibrant culture but in this video we’re excited to spotlight the music and sounds of Chiapas. Tuxtla Gutierrez was the perfect place for this vlog since it has a park dedicated to this musical instrument and across the street they have a museum dedicated to the history of the Marimba. At Parque La Marimba they also offer free performances for the public 5 nights of the week from Wednesday- Sunday at 6pm.

Now I know where I'm going for marimba lessons, thanks friends!
Definitely a great place to learn! Thanks for watching and commenting
chipas very chill place to live
Very nice place so far we have been impressed with Chiapas.
I sincerely respect and appreciate your statement that the marimba was derived from an Afro- indigenous mesh of cultures that should be celebrated throughout Latin America. That was heart-felt. I most certainly want to visit the state of Chiapas.
Sorry for the late reply, thank you so much for commenting and complimenting the statement. We wanted to make sure we worried about the most important thing about the Marimba.
Great work as always. Love the history and I’m obsessed with coffee! Chiapas is such a special place. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you guys! Hope all is well with you and we hope CDMX is treating you well. Saludos!
The song at 10:51 is 😍😍 classic! We also have marimba music in El Salvador. Thank you for the wonderful history and cultural lesson! Chiapas seems like it can its own country.
Los felicito por compartir con sus seguidores este hermoso video.Muy bonita música para bailar.
Gracias Leonor saludos!
I loved the look on Kevin’s face when he tried the drink….love the music …Chiapas is on my list of places to visit. Thanks for showing us through your eyes
The music is so beautiful in Chiapas we highly recommend it!
That was a beautiful plaza!
💃🕺🎵🎶🎼🎹🥁❤🥃🥘🍛
Glad you enjoyed this video! Any music in specific that you like about Mexico?
Muy bueno!
Gracias!
I have heard of the marimba but knew nothing about it, I like the sound, thanks for the info! As always, the food looks so yummy!
Marimba music is some of the happiest sounding music. We love it!
Had no idea of the history of the marimba. So fascinating. Give me chiapas cafecito and I could hang out and in the plaza all day dancing to the music. Thanks for the great info!
Chiapas coffee is the best! ☕️ and even better with marimba music 😊 thanks for leaving a comment! 🙏🏽
Great video, thanks for much
Glad you enjoyed it we had been wanting to make this video for a long time!
The Bruno Mars song was great as well as the video guys
Glad you enjoyed our video Karen, remember we had mentioned wanting to make on La Marimba? We are so happy to finally made it come true. Saludos
Awesome video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! This is one of our favorite topics 😊
I need to go to Chiapas, looks awesome over there! Hope you guys had a good time
Highly recommend Chiapas for it's music and nature. The food isn't our favorite but still worth visiting!
fun video :) those instruments indeed are super nice! if I remember correctly my first ever musical instrument was xylophone)).
Love how marimba sounds in some salsa songs as well. xx
how cool! Mine was the violin but that didn't last long unfortunately 😅
Looks like a nice park in Tuxtla. Previously I had only heard of it as the place you had to fly into to get to San Cristobal. Interesting info on the marimba as well.
For most it's just a pitstop and mostly likely because it's not touristy but I enjoyed it. Marimba is such beautiful music we love it!
I love learning new stuff from you two. I now have a new appreciation for the Marimba!
Oh yeah
We had been wanting to make this video for sure a long time. We feel fortunate to have had this opportunity to make this dream a reality. What makes it more special is that you enjoy the content we create. Saludos Andy!
One thing that share with the guatemaltecos
For sure! We actually share a lot in common we both have mayan culture, what divides us is the political division countries.
That's it. The .marimbas did it
Up I'm going to Chiapas
Where would you like to visit?! The nature here is out of this world just wait and see our upcoming vlogs!
Great video. Loved it guys!
Glad you enjoyed it Kyle! Thanks for watching
Gracias por visitarnos espero la hayan pasado muy bien 👍
La pasamos de maravilla! Ojala y pronto regresaremos
Loved, Loved this video!
Thanks y’all! I’ve heard this instrument in different types of music. Thanks for the historical background. ❤️
Loved that you enjoyed it as much we did! We look forward to making more music vlogs in the future especially on mariachi, tamborazo and sones jarochos!
This is so cool! I've been learning spanish (and latino culture) for more than 15 years and this is the first I have ever heard of the marimba and the origins of the xylophone! Just goes to show you can always learn something new everyday. Thanks guys!! 😊😊😊🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
We are one if not only who have made a vlog on the marimba. Check out our norteño music vlog it's also very cool to learn how the accordion was brought from europe. Thank you for watching and commenting, we are glad you enjoyed the video. Saludos
Excellent video! I really appreciate it when you enhance our understanding of Mexican culture by sharing musical traditions. Great stuff!
We knew you would appreciate this video Dan. Thank you for your support looking forward to making more videos like this especially on the Mariachi.
Very cool, I would never guess marimba is so popular in Chiapas or that it is national instrument in Guatemala. I mostly know it from Latin Jazz. Can you please make a vid on Cumbia?
Saludos guerrerenses a los hermanos chiapanecos!
Tascalate? Muy Interesante.
Never heard of it.
A couple of years ago, I happened upon Tepache. Ni idea de donde es.
Saludos chicos, nice video! I love learning new things, de la raza!
Quiovo Lucio! We missed you, you go MIA often but always good to have you back. Saludos! Tepache is a fermented drink from pinneapple Mexico has tons of fermented drinks and all of them are so so good!
Good music and great video!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you liked it! Hope you liked the Patreon Shoutout! Saludos Kristian!
@@EatBailaTravel Loving da Patreon!!!! 🤙
Coffee - we're IN! Marimba - we're totally in! This history lesson is awesome. Even as a drummer, I sometimes take for granted the existence of so many percussion instruments, and don't dig into their origin enough. So, I'm really loving this! And it's so cool seeing a few people playing on one at the same time! I gotta shout out those Tascalates - they look pretty amazing. And that's band's version of Uptown Funk is killer! Another great video, guys! ♥️
That's right you guys are our coffee buddies! Veracruz and Chiapas easily the best coffee in Mexico. We are looking forward to you cruise line band videos Stephen! Saludos
@@EatBailaTravel ☕️ ☕️☕️ 😋
Was just thinking about you two and wanting to see if you were back to full vibrant health. Presto! You look vibrant and so is this vid. Really good..Love the music.and your dancing...Did you just shoot this footage meaning you are on the move once again?
We normally film our content with one week in advanced we filmed this video two weeks ago but then we got sick and couldn't finish it. But to update you on our health, we are finally healthy again! YAY! We finished this vlog today and now we are looking to explore San Cristobal de Las Casas! BIG HUG JOHN! Saludos!
I really love this video and history behind the Marimba. I always thought it was a a Guatemalan instrument but makes sense it being in Chiapas since is Mayan land there.
Food looks super delish.
Chiapas is definitely a place I was to visit and explore all its wonders 💗
We’ll the history is a little complicated because back in 1545 there was no Chiapas, Guatemala, or Mexico. Technically Chiapas,Yucatán, Quintana Roo, Tabasco, Campeche, Guatemala and Belize were all a mayan area. Then the Spanish, and government divided it all which is why we’d like to focus on the marimba being an indigenous/ African cultural blend than rather argue who had it first.
Chiapas natural beauty is out of this world you have to visit!
I enjoyed the video, I am going to Tuxla Gutierrez in May, it will be my 31st Mexican capitol. It will be fun to compare notes. I have been to Chiapas once when I went to Palenque, but I am very interested in learning more about the state.
Sounds great we enjoyed Tuxtla best tip we can give you is be very careful with the water! Use as much bottled/filtered water for everything even brushing your teeth! We got super sick and it knocked us out a week.
Great information, but too many carbs for Guapo.
Life is all about balance 😉
Thanks for a great video! But what does recording from 1541 mean? What was the song? Humans started recording with phonograph 1877. :)
keep doing that history segment, at least you learn something
We enjoy it but often wonder if other people do
Not true. The marimba is before the Europeans and African slaves. The marimba is a native american instrument. The mayans
That can also be true!
But the word is Bantu in origin and it was a key instrument of the Kongo kingdom Im not even an Afrocentrist but this is true
Maybe they had similar instruments but it definitely wasn’t called marimba until after Angolan slaves arrived
@@EatBailaTravelbut it’s a Bantu word via the Angolan slaves brought there there was a similar instrument in the Americas but it wasn’t the marimba which is still played in Southern Africa
I think just like the ancients in Mexico built pyramids and so did the ancient Egyptians, the instrument now known as marimba could have developed in different places in their own way.
