Waltz-like rhythm with the bass instrument marking the downbeat of each measure, while guitars and other instruments strum on 2 and 3, as in “La bruja”
Violins filling in between verses and between melodic phrases; their entrances frequently alternating with the trumpets
Pedro Infante’s smooth style vocal style in this sophisticated instrumental arrangement (Other singers of corridos often use a less polished timbre and perform in smaller groups)
