Music Theory in Mexico from 1776 To 1866: A Study of Four Treatises by Native Authors (open access)

Music Theory in Mexico from 1776 To 1866: A Study of Four Treatises by Native Authors

This investigation traces the history and development of music theory in Mexico from the date of the first Mexican treatise available (1776) to the early second half of the nineteenth century (1866). This period of ninety years represents an era of special importance in the development of music theory in Mexico. It was during this time that the old modal system was finally abandoned in favor of the new tonal system and that Mexican authors began to pen music treatises which could be favorably compared with the imported European treatises which were the only authoritative source of instruction for serious musicians in Mexico.

A Guide for the Performance of Trumpet Mariachi Music in Schools (open access)

A Guide for the Performance of Trumpet Mariachi Music in Schools

The purpose of this study is to provide a guide for the instruction of a trumpet mariachi performance ensemble in a music curriculum. The fulfillment of this purpose is dependent upon the data supplied in answer to the sub problems: (1) What socio-cultural information provides authentic trumpet mariachi music; (2) What trumpet mariachi literature illustrates the repertoire and style; (3) What instructional source materials may be developed such that Mexican American and non-Mexican American instructors build a competency in repertoire and style; (4) How could this guide be evaluated in its functional design for a music curriculum? The data collected for use in this study has been presented in three major categories: (1) the history and milieu in which the trumpet, mariachi crystalized; (2) the repertoire--its history and function in Mexican society and the transcriptions of types demonstrating the musical structure; and (3) the technical information relative to the instruction of the particular mariachi instruments. An evaluative instrument has been supplied in an attempt to establish the validity of the information and examples provided in this practicum. The validity of the research seems to rest on its authenticity and its serviceability. The findings of this study are stated as assertions …

U.S.-Mexican Security Cooperation: The Mérida Initiative and Beyond (open access)

U.S.-Mexican Security Cooperation: The Mérida Initiative and Beyond

Increasing violence perpetrated by drug trafficking organizations and other criminal groups is threatening citizen security and governance in Mexico. Escalating violence has increased U.S. concerns about stability in Mexico, a key political and economic ally, and about the possibility of violence spilling over into the United States. In recent years, U.S.-Mexican security cooperation has increased significantly, largely as a result of the development and implementation of the Mérida Initiative, a counterdrug and anticrime assistance package for Mexico and Central America that was first proposed in October 2007. This report looks at the funding and Congressional oversight for this Initiative.

U.S. Troop in Mexico. Punitive Expedition Troops somewhere in Mexico. Walter H. Horne does not provide us with any specific information about the exact location of these Troops; or to which Unit these Troops are a part of. However since they are in Mexico, these Troops are undoubtedly part of General Pershing's Punitive Expedition in Mexico ca. 1916 - 1917. The unknown group of men are part of the Pennsylvania National Guard. Most of the men look tired and dirty but a few men have managed to smile for the camera. There are several horses in the background as well as at least 3 supply wagons. Back of the postcard in parenthesis: "5th over the river", according to research, in 1916, the 5th Calvary Regiment was dispatched to the Texas - Mexico border to serve as part of the Pancho Villa Expedition.
