The Case of the Barefoot Latin Tradition
12:00pm, 10-28-2018
<< Tropicology
Time to get back to our roots... in the Afro-Spanish tradition. As I often do, I'm pairing Cuban music with some of the African-influenced traditions in Peru. A strong Spanish influence can be heard in both countries' music, especially in the flamenco-influenced guitar techniques.
The set starts without guitar, however... just drum, voice, and bass. We will cross back and forth between some traditional Cuban guaguanco and some landos and festejos of Peru's African community, gradually adding that Spanish guitar. When we finally let the guitars take center stage, it is all Cuban country: guajiras and son, including tracks from a pair of new anthologies for Buena Vista Social Club personality Compay Segundo.
