Tejano Music
By : Jazlyn Jacobs
Where it all began
2
2
Following the Mexican American War in the 1800’s Tejano music
began to mark its spot in the music industry. With many Mexicans
crossing the Rio Grande, they would begin settling in their news
home in southern and central Texas. Along with them came many
different styles like mariachi, and cumbia. Ultimately, they would
add new sounds and tunes like accordions and horns. This would
be the beginning of the beloved music genre we so love and know
as Tejano today.
A blending of
cultures
Tejano was birthed in Texas and
flourished throughout the nation. It
is combined with the Spanish
vocal style as well as dance
rhythms from German and Czech.
The two most commons styles are
the waltz and polka.
What does Tejano
Mean ?
Tejano simply means
Mexican living in Texas or
Tex- Mex but it also
describes an entire culture
and musical genre. It is
referred to as Tex- Mex
because Texas is where
Tejano made its mark.
Why is Tejano
Music an
important part of
Latin culture?
Tejano music is a form of
cultural expression and
freedom. Not only this but it is
an artistic form of expression,
from the instruments, to the
sounds and lyrics, it is a
representation of the Mexican
American community. Also, it
is a genre full of culture and
history. Even though it was
birthed in Texas, it is loved
throughout the nation, and
many can find identity within it.
