The marimba’s natural home is Veracruz where it can be heard outside on the streets, at restaurants and in the squares.The Mexican instrument is distinguished from its counterparts in other countries by its pyramid shaped resonators carved from cedar wood and covered with a thin sheet of pig’s intestine, giving it a distinctive characteristic sound. With a repertoire of traditional tunes the three musicians who make up Grupo Nematatlin represent the best of authentic Mexican marimba music.
