  • Die Musik in Guatemala hat ihre Wurzeln in den Überlieferungen der Urbevölkerung und europäischen Einflüssen seit Mitte des 16. Jahrhunderts. Das Nationalinstrument Guatemalas ist die Marimba. Das erste Dokument, in dem die Marimba erwähnt wird, ist ein Bericht von 1680, laut dem eine Marimbagruppe vor der Kathedrale von Antigua Guatemala nach der Festmesse auf dem Kirchplatz spielte. Das Instrument wird später von dem Historiker Domingo Juarros (1752–1820) in seinem Kompendium der Geschichte von Guatemala erwähnt und beschrieben. Das Instrument könnte jedoch bedeutend älter sein, als Nachbau einer westafrikanischen Marimba. (de)

En lo relativo a la música, los mayas desarrollaron instrumentos musicales como flautas, silbatos, tambores de madera o tunkules, sonajas y cascabeles, y utilizaron caracoles sonores y caparazones de tortuga.
