The ensembles insistently inventive program of traditional Afro-Peruvian music transformed by Gabriel Alegras highly personal synthesis of folkloric Afro-Peruvian rhythms, jazz, and other musical strains has led to a signature accomplishment: developing the bands patented blend of deep scholarship and playfulness into a touring experience that conveys a vast knowledge of the music and, perhaps more importantly, transmits black music from coastal Per as a way of life to its audiences.This dynamic ensemble explores the affinities between modern jazz and the Afro-Latin continuum in Peru.
