In a society where the young members of opposite sexes were kept apart, the serenata was a means of communication by which a young man could send a message of love to the woman of his heart.

Montreal Mariachi traditions

In many areas of Mexico, it is not unusual to be awakened by the sound of Las Mananitas, the traditional song for birthdays. The Mariachi is usually positioned strategically on the street beneath the window of the festejada (person celebrated), but the sound of its music echoes through the whole neighborhood. Mariachis are also commonly hired for baptisms, weddings, patriotic holidays, and even funerals.
