LATINIDAD CELEBRATION
Caña Dulce y Caña
Brava
Spreading and
recreating the traditional music of Veracruz, Mexico
OCTOBER 24 • 7:00
PM
Caña Dulce y Caña Brava
recreates the music, poetry, dance, and traditional attire of Veracruz,
Mexico, interpreted by artists who are beneficiaries of the son jarocho
culture and noteworthy performers with years of experience. The group
highlights feminine poetry and voices in a traditionally masculine
musical tradition. Audiences are taken on a voyage through multiple
rhythms, accompanied by traditional string instruments and the
projection of vivid visual effects. The sounds of the strings
interweave with the poetic messages written from a woman’s perspective,
creating a facet not before seen within this musical genre.
Location: Shea
Center for Performing Arts
Admission: Free and
open to the public.

clutch your pearls and your purse (which may or may not have an entire
