Chapinlandia - Marimba Music of Guatemala. Marimba Chapinlandia. Steeped in centuries of tradition, Marimba Chapinlandia and its music express the modern marimba sound that took shape around the turn of the 20th century. Its catchy melodies, sentimental harmonies, and dance rhythms are the signature of Guatemala's national musical instrument that drew from the African, Indian, and Ladino (creole) roots of Central America's colonial past.
In addition to carrying on the traditional sound of the Guatemalan marimba ensemble, this group has also provided the valuable service of preserving music by such notable Guatemalan composers as Paco PÃ©rez, Domingo Bethancourt, and FroilÃ¡n Rodas Santizo.
