Rumba–which involves dance, percussion and song–originated in Cuba in the late 19th century influenced by African and Iberian musical traditions. It made its way back across the Atlantic, where it became rumba flamenca in Spain. This program will explore the connection between the styles of rumba found in Cuba, Mexico, and Spain.
