Son, meaning music, dance, local traditions and culture, has many different forms. Son de Madera performs the son jarocho, originally
a rural form typically found in the state of Veracruz, and now part of the community’s urban existence. Los Camperos de Valles perform
the son huasteco, a trio with two guitars and a violin, all three singing, including a unique falsetto voice and two dancers.
