SOAS Concert Series - Behind The Music: Candombé, Songs and Drums from Uruguay
In Behind The Music this week, we hear from Guillermo Rozenthuler, who talks about his upcoming concert 'Candombe: Songs and Drums from Uruguay'. We learn something of the music from Uruguay, Latin-America’s ‘unknown gem’, and how the Afro-carnival tradition and rhythm of Candombé spread from Montevideo to influence the music of South America.
