  1. Look into Sebastian's style. What does "el charro" mean? Describe traditional mariachi outfits and why they dress that way.
  2. Describe traditional mariachi music. What are the instruments of a mariachi band? How many people are in a group? What do the songs typical talk about? 
  3. Find other performances of mariachis and link them. What do you like/dislike about the music? Why?
