Banda is a brass-based form of traditional Mexican music. Bandas play a wide variety of songs, including rancheras, corridos, cumbias, baladas, and boleros. Band are most widely known for their rancheras, but they also play modern Mexican pop, rock, and cumbias. Most Banda music is very clearly a dialect of polka and will seem familiar and appealing to fans of polka or traditional German and Polish music. The late Jenni Rivera years' long career included such honors as 20 million albums sold, making her the highest earning banda singer of all time. She is also responsible for bringing a female perspective to what had historically been a male-dominated genre. La Banda El Recodo, Banda Machos, Banda Maguey, La Arrolladora Banda El Limón, La Original Banda El Limón, Banda Valle Alegre, Banda MS, Banda Cuisillos, Banda Jerez, and Banda Los Recoditos are some of the most famous banda groups. Despite banda being a male-dominated genre, there are a few female soloist banda-singers such as Ana Gabriel, Carmen Jara, Shaila Durcal, Ana Bárbara, and Graciela Beltrán. There's also a handful all-female bandas such as Banda Las Soñadoras and Banda Las Tapatias, both from Guadalajara, Jalisco. ==History== Banda music was established in the 1880s in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, when it exploded into popularity in the 1890s throughout Mexico. Its roots come from the overlapping of Mexican music with German polka music. At the time, many German Mexicans lived in the states of Sinaloa, Chihuahua, Jalisco and Nuevo León. This greatly influenced northern Mexican music. Immigrants from northern Mexico brought the music to the United States. Initially popular in the southwest United States, primarily in Texas, California and Arizona, banda has followed the movement of Mexican immigrants to the Midwest United States and the rest of the country. Other notes on the origin of "banda" music resembling mid 20th century jazz: Mexicans who came in contact with Latin-based Jazz of Chicanos or Mexicans born and raised in the United States adopted jazz-like sounds in banda to further enrich the music type. The first bandas were established in the 19th century in the south and center of Mexico. There are brass instruments dated from the 1850s in the state of Jalisco. The repertory of the bandas of Jalisco and Sonora covered gusto, son, vinuet, piezas y marchas fúnebres, danzon, vals, corrido, pasos dobles, marchas, polkas, rancheras, alabanzas and foxes. In Yucatán, the bandas are called jaranas and also play jarana music. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Banda (music)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
