Trip to the Sierra Norte en La Mixe

View Larger Map

After a pretty windy bus ride through the mountainous Sierra Norte we arrived at our destination in the Mixe. We were privileged enough to hear the student band there and even hear one of the older men of the town play his violin.

Here is a video of Reuben from Pasatono, a band from the Mixteca, playing with the village band. Performing El Maromero


and here is a video of one of the older men in the Village playing his violin, enjoy...


We are all working to finish some end of the semester work, because the program ends in about a week, can you believe it?
Until next time,
Mike
