We invite you to see and listen to the next generation of musicians and dancers, both Puerto Rican and Garífuna, as they continue to influence each other and perform in each other’s ensembles. “Parranda con Paranda: Women’s Voices from Puerto Rican and Garífuna Music Traditions” takes its name from a program at the Bronx Music Heritage Center that has annually presented Puerto Rican and Garífuna musical and cultural traditions side by side, to highlight the vibrant rhythmic connections between these two communities. 

This event is part of the Los Pleneros de la 21 oral history project as well as the Bronx Music Heritage Center’s collaboration with the Hemispheric Institute on the Abeimahani: Garífuna Women’s Voices project.

Participants include Norka Hernandez Nadal, Kya Perez, Genesis Nunez, Lesly Colon, Julissa Melendez Guity, and Elena Martinez

This is a FREE event. Please RSVP to attend.
