Modern dance
The definition of the Mexican slang word “naco” is open to interpretation but has, until recently at least, mostly been used to describe people, behaviors or aesthetic choices seen as unrefined or unsophisticated, often in a comic way.
Tuesday recitals
The free classical music series Martes de Musica y Opera will move house during September from the Degollado Theater to the Teatro Alarife Martin Casillas. The concept remains the same: no tickets are sold nor is there numbered seating. Just turn up before the performance and grab a seat.
The Guadalajara Mariachi Festival truly lives up to its name as an international celebration of the genre.
The third Festival Internacional de Música Vocal Jalisco Canta, featuring talented a cappella groups, duets and solo performers from both Mexico and abroad, has scheduled 13 recitals in Guadalajara, as well as shows in Chapala, Tepatitlan, Lagos de Moreno, Acatlan de Juarez, Mazamitla and Tapalpa.
The magical sound of mariachi will resonate across Guadalajara for ten glorious days when the 22nd International Mariachi Festival gets underway on Friday, August 28.
