New Mexico music is a genre of music that originated in New Mexico, United States, it derives from the Puebloan music in the 13th century, and its further development during the 16th to 19th centuries in Santa Fe de Nuevo México. The music went through several changes during pre-statehood, mostly during the developments of Western. After statehood, New Mexico music became a folk music for the native New Mexicans, mostly with the Pueblo, Navajo, Apache, Neomexicanos, and the descendants of the American frontier. Shortly after statehood, during the early 1900s, elements of Country music and American folk music began to become incorporated into the genre. The 1950s and 1960s brought the influences of Blues, Jazz, Rockabilly, and Rock and roll into New Mexico music; and, during the 1970s, the genre entered popular music in the state, with artists like Al Hurricane and Freddie Brown receiving airtime locally on KANW, and international recognition on the syndicated Val De La O Show.〔 Also, prominently featured on the Val de la O Show were other Southwestern artists performing Regional Mexican and Tejano music, this brought a more general audience to New Mexico music. The sound of New Mexico music is distinguished by its steady rhythm, usually provided by drums or guitar, while accompanied by instruments common in Pueblo music, Western, Norteño, Apache music, Country, Ranchera, and Navajo music. Country and western music lend their drum and/or guitar style sections, while the steadiness of the rhythm owes its origins to the music of the Apache, Navajo, and Pueblo. And the differing rates of that tempo comes from the three common Ranchera rhythm speeds, the polka at 2/4 (ranchera polkeada), the waltz at 3/4 (ranchera valseada), and/or the bolero at 4/4 (bolero ranchero). The language of the vocals in New Mexico music is usually Spanish and New Mexican Spanish; American and New Mexican English; Spanglish; Tiwa; Hopi; Zuni; Navajo; and/or Southern Athabaskan languages. Outside of New Mexico, nationally and internationally, New Mexico music is classified under several different genres, including, World, Country, Latin, Reggae, and Folk. In Arizona, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Utah it is sometimes placed as a subgenre of Latin music, this is especially true in Arizona, Southern Colorado, and the Oklahoma panhandle. And, in Mexico and Texas, it is sometimes classified as Norteño or Ranchera. ==Origins== The musical history of New Mexico goes back to pre-colonial times. But, the sounds that define New Mexico music begin particularly with the ancient Anasazi, some of their music is thought to have survived in the traditional songs of the Pueblo people, with wind instruments such as the Anasazi flute, as well as the chants and drum beats of the Navajo and Apache. When the Spanish founded Santa Fe de Nuevo México they brought with them liturgical music, violin, and the Spanish guitar, and Mexico brought with it the traditions of Mariachi, and Ranchera. Those traditions include Mexican Son music, Corrido, Duranguense, and Banda. After New Mexico became a territory, the people of the American frontier brought the traditions of Country music and Cajun music. This was when the first forms of New Mexico music began to be played, Western was an adaption of Country and Cajun, accompanied by traditionally Mexican and Native American instruments. Once New Mexico became a state the music was sung at fiestas and in homes as traditional folk music, and during the 1950s and 1960s it became a form of popular music. In the 1970s, KANW began playing Spanish language New Mexico 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「New Mexico music」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
