If you loved last year’s Songs of the Americas program, you won’t want to miss this treasure trove of songs from North and South America. Continue to journey through this diverse and dynamic musical landscape with sixteen professional Desert Chorale artists. Experience the vibrant rhythms and soulful melodies of modern-day Latin America as you’re transported across Brazil, Argentina, and Venezuela. Enjoy a world premiere fusing Cuban musical traditions with current choral techniques by Cuban-American composer Ernesto Herrera. Then, celebrate familiar folk tunes featuring New Mexican guitarist Nacha Mendez.
