009 - Show Janitzio plays the Music of the Revolucion Mexicana

In this episode of Arriba! Folklorico music and dance of Mexico , we focus in detail on the musical corridos and polkas of the Mexican Revolution of 1910 ( Revolucion Mexicana ). The beginning of this podcast starts with Show Janitzio performing a portion of the polka called Jesusita en Chihuahua . This podcast episode ends with 2 complete songs performed live by Show Janitzio (not played from a CD)-- Valentin de la Sierra and La Muerte de un Soldado . An emphasis is placed on the role of the Mexican women during the Revolucion , who fought in the conflict right alongside their men. The 5 most famous heroines in the ballads of the corridos during the Revolucion were: - La Cucaracha - Adelita - Valentina - Juana Gallo and - Jesusita en Chihuahua . For more information about the story told by the corrido of La Cucaracha , you can get the 1954 film by that name from Mexcinema Video Corporation . The complete set of Lyrics can be found in the literary work called Antologia de Poesia Mexicana . You can find the lyrics for Benjamin Argumedo , as well. What is interesting is that Show Janitzio includes an accordion in the group, which is not typical for a traditional group of Mexican musicians known as the trio . However, the accordion adds the flavor that is needed to make the experience of the corrido from the Revolucion Mexicana a wonderful experience. This episode ends with Show Janitzio playing Valentin de la Sierra and La Muerte de un Soldado. Copyright (c) 2007, Matrix Solutons Corporation and Show Janitzio.
