DESCRIPTION:In celebration of Hispanic Heritage\, we will illustrate the in
 tersection of early European music with the aural African and Amerindian t
 raditions and the resulting link with current Latin-American genres\, the 
 African diaspora in Latin America and its lasting musical legacy in Ibero-
 American music\, and the fusion of art music or “learned” music with f
 olk and popular forms.\n\nUsing musical texts from the 17th and 18th centu
 ry such us the Trujillo Codex and guitar treatises by Santiago de Murcia a
 nd Gaspar Sanz\, we present the European\, Amerindian\, and African tradit
 ions that have survived in scores\, recreating them through current perfor
 mance practices of Afro-Latin music traditions in Bolivia\, Peru\, Mexico\
 , Puerto Rico\, and Venezuela. We tap into our collective musical memory t
 o blend past and present\, connecting current Afro-Latin dances such as th
 e Hatajo de Negritos\, Joropo\, Saya\, and Plena with African-influenced d
 ances such as the Cumbe\, early Zarabanda\, and Zarambeque in performances
  informed by both history and folklore.\n\nAlso in the program: Early voca
 l music from Spain and Mexico\, with texts from the Iberian Cancioneros th
 at depict black women in endearing terms and connected Latin American danc
 es and instrumental improvisations.\n\n \n\nARTISTS\nAdriana Ruiz & Daniel

 p\nRicardo Matute\, percussion\nLaury Gutiérrez\, viola da gamba & Renais
 sance guitar\nand guest performers\n\n \n\nRUMBARROCO'S MISSION\nTo unite 
 diverse communities by highlighting the fusion and confluence of the cultu
 res of Europe\, Africa\, and the Americas through musical performances and
  educational outreach.\n\nWe show the European influence on Afro-American 
 and indigenous music in Latin America\, as well as how the fusion of those
  types of music with European classical music produced new musical genres.
  We recreate\, preserve\, and popularize the diverse multicultural aspects
  of the rhythmic patterns that have been passed down from the Middle Ages 
 to today. And for this purpose we have formed a Latin-Baroque Fusion ensem
 ble of musicians using period\, folk\, and contemporary popular instrument
 s. Rumbarroco also aims to promote awareness and enjoyment of the musical 
 and cultural similarities and distinctions between Orient and Occident\, a
 nd among Jews\, Christians\, and Muslims\, as experienced through Latin-Am
 erican music. We seek to unite today’s diverse communities through the p
 owerful transformative passion of the music we play. Finally\, we employ m
 usic as a tool for cultural integration\, especially for the empowerment o
 f youth in their personal growth.
