    This music has aways given me goosebumps. Later in life I found out this is the music of my abuelos who were Tamaulipecos. This makes me proud of my heritage!

    I'm. mexican ad myself was surprised of the whole meaning of this Huasteca culture, I always heard some of this music when I was a kid, back in the 80s and living in the central region of Mexico and familiarized with other type of mexican styles always thought of Huasteca songs as a very diminut or simple music, but as I grew up I learned about traditions and how they come up to be part of life. .and this documentary wonderfully explains this traditional culture! thanks for your work and dedication, this is a great documentary.

    This is an interesting documentary about this music. Personally I love love that music, the land and the people even though I wasn´t born there. I just wish it were longer and would cover a wider area of the huasteca. Nowadays the huasteca is said to include part of 6 states, even including the north of the state of Puebla. I wish more people in the US and other English speaking countries saw this. Why not even translating it to other languages? Why not a 2nd. part of the documentary? There´s so much to bring about the huasteca, apart from the music. Good job. Keep up the good work.

    Huasteca music, according to The Chieftains, merges the original, pre-Columbian music from La Huasteca, with that of the Iberian conqueror/settlers of Celtic origin (Celt-Iberians, natives of Galician regions…) This of course includes tap dancing (similar to that of the Irish) on wooden floors built specifically for this purpose...

    @@stinkypatas4life843 There is a song called "Las 3 Huastecas" but in fact there are more, some people say 4 Huastecas the States of Hidalgo, Veracruz, San Luis Potosi and Tamaulipas, but that is not exact. there was or still is a people calle Huastecos and all of the territory that they occupied in ancient or modern times is Huasteco, so in addition to the ones I already mentioned there are parts of Puebla, Queretaro and even the Estado de México that are Huasteca too. now talking about the music, I guess this people had a special sound or feeling that influenced the style of music they like and play because all of the Huasteca music is similar in many aspects and it differs in some other for example some instruments, you can here in youtube look for videos of huasteca veracruzana or hidalguense or others and see and listen yourself.

    Sólo un punto respecto a la tarima donde se bailan los Sones y Huapangos Huastecos; la tarima se le llama tapanco, La definición del tapanco aplica tanto al entrepiso de madera que se construye en casas con techo de dos aguas (ático), como a la tarima de madera donde se bailan los Sones y Huapangos Huastecos.

    While there are many beautiful aspects of the sonos huasteca, one of the important elements seems to have been overlooked, maybe? Or I might just be naive. It's very possible. This vid goes over things I certainly didn't know, so ...gracias for that. But the element your ensemble doesn't highlight is that big-bottomed bass line that alternates between playing on only beats 2 and 3, followed by a sudden eighth rest on the downbeat of the second bar finishing with a strong pluck on the 3rd beat of that bar. It sets my heart on fire. It's a powerful motif when executed properly, but this smaller ensemble and dancing isn't adding that layer of interest to the video. Or I may just be naive, lol. Muchas Gracias por la video.

    Hicham Tali It´s a fragment of "La Petenera". Other factor about this music is its versatility and dymamic. Lirycs can and vary a lot and every version is unique with a certainty due to the variety of verses, violin playing, and dancers! Musicians can make up verses right on the spot about almost anything. That adds fun to the performance and is a skill not everybody has. It takes years to get to do that.
