I listened to this whole tribute to the legendary Linda Ronstadt. Many of is in the Mexican and Mexican American community grew up with Mariachi music. I encourage listening to this tribute, and also learning about her pathbreaking career that should serve as an inspiration to us all. It is titled "Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice." You can view it on Netflix. Also, her album, "Canciones de Mi Padre" is still a major hit, reflecting not only her excellence, but hunger for positive, hopeful, strong exemplars that speak to, and represent, your soul.
It perhaps goes without mention that Mariachi music enjoys international acclaim. The University of Texas boasts Mariachi Paredes that dates back to 1977.
It's so expressive and dramatic. Not to be taken for granted. There's just nothing like it.
