Busting Excuses
1.
2.
I don’t speak Spanish, I can’t teach Mariachi.
BUSTED – You don’t have to. If your are unsure of the
lyrics use Google translate or ask.
3. I don’t know how to teach Mariachi.
4. BUSTED – Maraichi is an oral tradition. You teach it the
same way you teach a modern band.
5. I don’t know how to play the folk instruments or violin.
6. BUSTED – That’s why you are here!
Armonia
Guitar
Let’s try this progression
G Em Am D7
Vihuela Tuning
Vihuela Fingering
Vihuela fingering is the same as guitar without the low
E string.
Some people use their thumb on the low A string. It is
personal preference.
Strumming patterns and chord progression are the
same as the guitar.
Let’s add vihuela
G Em Am D7
Guitarron
Is the bass of the ensemble.
Easily can substitute a upright bass or an electric bass
for the guitarron. (or even bass Orff instruments)
