Durangense hails from the state of Durango, but is a popular phenomenon in Chicago as well due to the large number of Mexican immigrants there from Durango. Banda features a raucus and busy percussion section, a bassline courtesy of tuba, and brass interludes between lyrics. Durangense features more use of saxophone.
