Latin Grooves
Even when it's conceived for the concert hall, Latin American music is never far from the street. As Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico and Colombia have produced a string of world-class musicians in the last few decades, so has the rest of the world got a taste of the colorful, sensitive and sultry music those countries and their neighbors have produced. Join us on a journey through some of the most luscious, groovy, fiery and sensual Latin American music of the last 150 years – from intellectual responses to Bach and Beethoven, to outlandish orchestral celebrations, to gritty modernism grinding up against traditional dances. Whatever its purpose and origins, you know when you're listening to Latin American music.
