“Playing Across America: A bi-lingual Adventure through Music and Story”

December 11 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm EST

Take a journey across the Americas through song. In this performance we’ll learn about instruments that have shaped the sonic landscape of folk and popular music traditions across Latin America. We’ll get an introduction to the Charango, a small Andean stringed instrument widespread throughout Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Chile and Argentina. We’ll also experience songs from the tradition of Canto con Caja, an ancestral music passed on through oral tradition across Andean cultures of the north and north-west of Argentina. One 30-minute performance, followed by a one-hour workshop with musician and clay artist, Melissa Foss. Call the Library at (410) 396-1580 for more information.
