  Monterrey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Monterrey is the capital city of the Mexican state of Nuevo León, well known for its industries, particularly beer, finance, glass, and steel.
Perhaps the most traditional dish from Monterrey is cabrito al pastor, a young goat cooked in embers based on the Jewish cuisine of the founders of the city.
Monterrey has two soccer teams in the Mexican league, the Tigres of the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León and the Club de Futbol Monterrey, known as the Rayados.

 El Saxofon in Tejano and Norteno Music
Some knowledgeable individuals that I interviewed in Monterrey during the summer of 1997 speculated the saxophone first came to Mexico during the early 1860s with the military bands accompanying would-be-emperor Maximiliano's failed attempt to colonize the country.
There is evidence that Monterrey was exposed during the early 1920s to the jazz-style playing of visiting saxophonists like Tudor Applen with the All American Jazz Orchestra from New Orleans, and locals like Manuel Martha with the El Porvenir Jazz Group (28).
Nonetheless, it was his smooth version of "Monterrey" that placed the saxophone squarely in front and center of the Tejano musical tradition.
