"A los dos grupos de marimba presentados aquí les debemos los más hermosos temas del estado de Oaxaca. El primero es un grupo de ocho hombres tocando en una marimba grande, de cerca de cuatros metros de extensión. Al segundo grupo lo descubrimos en una pequeña cabaña en las inmediaciones de Oaxaca. El instrumento que utilizan es pequeño, de apenas un metro y medio de largo, y es tocado por tres hombres. Esta marimba tiene un sonido muy hermoso, su conmovedora ondulación procura un dejo maravilloso a la lánguida y dulce música de Oaxaca..."
