Son Jarocho - Extract

San Juan Bautista Tuxtepec, Oaxaca, Mexico

Pajarito it's the name of the song.
What you hear are jacanas, the small traditional guitars used by Jarocho's musicians, and one Requinto guitar (and some kids laughing).
Playing jaranas: Elías Meléndez, who I personally dubbed as "The Muddy Waters of Son Jarocho" -he passed away on 2017-; Arturo Barradas, leader of Soneros del Tesechoacan, a famous jarocho music band, and his son, young Elías Barradas.
Playing the requinto guitar is Adrián Luna, who for many years was a member of the Grammy awardees group Los Cojolites. Adrián Luna's voice is on one song (El Conejo) included in the soundtrack of the two Oscars winner and internationally recognized movie Frida (2002).
Recorded with Zoom, in 2013, in Tuxtepec, Oaxaca, during a jam session.
RIP Elías Meléndez.

This is exactly what I was looking for! To edit the video of Los Hermanos Pochtecah, a business trading Mexican handicrafts. Thanks a lot!
