The nationally award-winning Mariachi Aztlán was founded by Dr. Dahlia Guerra, Assistant Vice-President of Public Art at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, and is co-directed by Mr. Francisco Loera, who is on the faculty of the School of Music at UTRGV. The Mariachi has traveled throughout Mexico, Canada and the United States as musical ambassadors, representing the beauty of the Hispanic music and cultural traditions. They are frequently invited as guest clinicians to teach at the major mariachi conferences throughout the US. Mariachi Aztlán has been selected numerous times as the “Outstanding College or University Mariachi” in nationwide competition throughout the past twenty years.

The group of Mariachi Aztlán from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley has performed regional collaborative efforts such as in June 2021 a virtual concert in collaboration with the Roswell Symphony Orchestra. That production was titled “Cuando México Canta” and it celebrated the many different styles of songs within the genre of mariachi. This is one of many collaborative efforts the group has done, winning many awards along the way.

The event at the Flickinger Center is a show not to be missed to get into the holiday spirit. We will be there so, join us!
