Afro-Puerto Rican Sounds with Cultura Plenera

Sunday, September 28, 4:30 p.m. – Harold J. Kaplan Concert Hall
Experience two uniquely traditional Puerto Rican musical styles, Bomba and Plena, with the Cultura Plenera Ensemble.
Bomba is a Puerto Rican musical genre that dates back more than 300 years. With heavy African influences, Bomba expresses the sentiments of Puerto Ricans and their culture through barrel drums, maraca, cúa, singer and dancers. Plena is another Puerto Rican musical genre dating back more than 100 years, and it too narrates stories of the Puerto Rican experience through hand drums, güiro and singers. Both Bomba and Plena are central to life in Puerto Rican communities inside and outside of the island.
