LATIN AMERICAN MUSIC WORKSHOP - Session 2

Huayno y Carnavalito

01.11.20 - 16:00-20:00

@ Terzo Mondo (concert space)

Grolmanstraße 28

10623 Berlin

This workshop will focus on Andean styles such as huayno and carnavalito

This workshop was created as a space to share knowledge and experiences in the field of Latin American music, which Gabo and Marta have accumulated through their longtime involvement with these genres.

It is aimed at both singers and instrumentalists of different levels and offers participants the opportunity to learn more about Latin American styles and rhythms.

It is mainly focused on teaching songs (in Spanish), in styles such as Cuban son and bolero, Venezuelan vals and joropo, Colombian porro, Argentinean chacarera and zamba, among others. Previous experience with Spanish isn’t necessary, as we focus on teaching the text phonetically and select a portion of the lyrics.

The participants will learn hand percussion rhythms typical of each style such as maracas, clave and palmas, which the singers usually use to accompany themselves. Percussionists will also have a chance to learn patterns on the bombo leguero or cajon.

Instrumentalists will be able to practice accompaniments, melodies and phrasing.

Sheet music and lyrics will be available, both for those who read music and for those who learn by ear.
