Description:

Mariachi Alegre has become one of the greater Southwest’s favorite mariachis entertaining since 1995. The group consists of five violinists, two trumpets, and four rhythm players. Hailing from El Paso, Texas and Las Cruces, New Mexico, the members of Mariachi Alegre have been busy this year. They have had the opportunity to travel all over the Southwest, from Alamogordo to Van Horn, serenading and creating mariachi music lovers. In August 2001, Mariachi Alegre was invited to instruct their first mariachi mini-conference in Roswell, New Mexico. The group also traveled to Orlando, Florida in October 2001 to participate in Walt Disney World’s Magic Music Days under the instruction of Mariachi Cobre.
