Music reviews of Mariachi Cobre
Music Review: Mariachi Perfection
Rating: 5 Stars
Mariachi Cobre are a talented assembly of musicians - Other than Mariachi Vargas I can't think of any Mariachi band more accomplished. Their performances are full of fire and passion and virtuosity. All of their recordings are national treasures (They are essentially THE American Mariachi), and this is their masterpiece.
There are many highlights among the generous 18 tracks, but I have to single out "El Balaju" - in years of loving Mariachi music I have not come across a better performance. Good Mariachi music is instantly identified by the complex rhythms laid down by the guitarrons and strings, the beautiful lines on the violins and the brassy pronouncements from the trumpets, but especially by the fiery vocals. There is nothing that drives from my ears to my marrow more certainly than a skillfully rendered Mariachi chorus from a group of beautifully harmonized voices. "El Balaju" combines all of these elements in a way that is astonishing. I challenge anyone to listen to it remaining stationary. The many other recordings mix slow ballads with up-tempo raucous romps, complex instrumentals with beautiful vocals. The only thing better than listening to this recording is listening to Mariachi Cobre in person - preferably with margarita in hand! Esto es muy bueno!

The sound is tight and crisp, with every emotional nuance shining through, from joy and love to despair. Trumpets, guitars, violins, and exceptional vocalists combine to produce music that is both strong and sensitive.You may never have seen such annotation like this before, either. A thirty-page booklet explains the background of mariachi music and contains all the lyrics in both English and Spanish. Mariachi Cobre will appeal to listeners who have enjoyed this type of music for years and to world music fans who are searching for new doors to open their musical horizon.
