About

The Music of Mexico Ensemble is UCLA's mariachi course (ETHNMUS 91K and 161K), covering regional styles such as son jalisciense, son huasteco and huapango along with boleros and rancheras. Its performing group, Mariachi de Uclatlán, formed in 1961, and the School of Music describes it as the first academic mariachi group in the world. The ensemble has helped carry mariachi music forward in the United States since the early 1960s.
