CONJUNTO MUSIC

The first Conjunto performer was a lady and she was the first in America to be signed. Conjunto music has been a big part of my family since I was very little. It is music that I have always listened to. Many people who speak Spanish listen to this music because they relate to what this music is talking about. Others listen to it because the like the way it sounds and like to dance to it even though the words don’t make any sense to them. The difference in Conjunto music is that a person can always tell the difference from the beat that is heard in Conjunto. It has the accordion, the guitar, the harmonica, drums and the base. It has a lot of different beats from different instruments. To people who listen to it has a different feel to it and it talks about everything in life. This kind of music has made the accordion more popular to many other genres of music. It has become more popular to America. I learned that many others sing conjunto music. I did not know many artists are considered Conjunto and I did not know what kind of music Conjunto is just who the artists are. The accordion used to not be used or heard from as much and now many performers use it in other kinds of music not just in Conjunto it has became a more popular instrument than it was before. I learned that the people who sing and play Conjunto music love what they play, it makes them happy and they enjoy playing music for others.
