A Peruvian Sojourn: Music Inspired by Andean Indigenous Melodies, Rhythms, and Traditions

A Peruvian Sojourn
This event is organized by the Latin American Music Center of the Catholic University of America, with the collaboration of the Embassy of Peru in the USA.

This program features compositions by classically trained Peruvian composers and a Peruvian-American composer who were inspired in a variety of ways by Andean Indigenous melodies, rhythms, and traditions. These works range from simple folk settings to complex compositions, and they illustrate the colorful, haunting, and energetic combination of the Andean Indigenous musical traditions with Western classical music, both tonal and new.

Carmen Rodríguez-Peralta and Orlando Cela have performed together for many years, and being of Latin American heritage; this program has special significance for them.

The event is on April 1st, 2023, at 7:00 p.m. at the Ward Recital Hall (348 University Dr NE, Washington, District of Columbia).
