Rivers of Resistance
Through polyrhythms and harmonies, Queen of the Marimba de Chonta Eryen Korath Ortiz Garcés (Buenaventura, Colombia) and Neblinas del Pacífico (La Mission, San Francisco) sonically navigate the rivers and mangroves of the Colombian Pacific Coast. Together, their musical journey honors the region's Afro-Colombian spirituality, traditions, everyday life, celebrations, ancestors and long history of resistance. Featuring instruments like marimba de chonta, bombos, cununos, and guasás, their performance is a vibrant celebration of Colombia's Pacific Coast heritage.
