Positive energy radiates from this musical ensemble, guaranteeing listeners will leave with a warm holiday spirit.
Notable pieces on the program include Fantasía Oriunda, written by Peruvian composer Daniel Cueto. “Oriundo” in Spanish translates to “native”, an appropriate title for this piece combining elements from the Peruvian musical genres of pregón, tondero, and yaraví plus impressions of the Venezuelan joropo and the Mexican wapango. This piece is a celebration of Latin American unity and will surely awaken a lively spirit for the beginning of the concert.
