"The Family Madrigal" is a vallenato tune,[2] driven by Colombian folk instruments such as an accordion, caja vallenata and guacharaca. Mirabel performs the song to introduce the film's core characters—the Madrigal family—and their magical "gifts" to the audience. Miranda stated the song was inspired by "Belle", the opening song in Beauty and the Beast (1991).[3] The melody of Abuela's verse is the same as that of "Dos Oruguitas".[4]
