Mariachi Hueanchi

The Wenatchee School District’s award-winning Mariachi Huenachi, under the direction of Ramon Rivera and Eduardo Cortes, will travel to Fairbanks, Alaska to perform in the Encanto Northern Lights Concert. The performance will be held on Saturday, October 26th at 7:30 p.m. at the University of Alaska Fairbanks’ Davis Concert Hall. Mariachi Huenachi will be opening the show for Tenor José Iñiguez.

Eight senior members of Mariachi Huenachi have applied for admission to the University of Alaska. If admitted, these seniors will be recognized during the concert says Mariachi Director Ramon Rivera. “It’s these types of collaborations between institutions, artists and non-profit arts organizations that can have a far-reaching impact on the future of our youth,” says Tenor and founder of Encanto Arts, José Iñiguez. This is a great honor for the Wenatchee School District Mariachi Program. 

During their week-long tour, Mariachi Huenachi will give community performances and visit the University of Alaska, Museum of the North, and the College of Natural Science and Mathematics. 

As featured on FOX, ABC Network, Despierta America, and the CBS Evening News, the Golden Apple Award-winning Mariachi Huenachi Program has been nationally recognized as being the fastest-growing mariachi music program outside of Mexico, with over 300 participating students ages 9-18.
