TRÍO GUADALEVÍN

  • Great Lawn, Yerba Buena Gardens 750 Howard St SF, CA, 94103 United States (map)

Trío Guadalevín explores the musical dialogue between Indigenous, European and African cultures which define Latin American identity. The ensemble – formed by percussionist Antonio Gómez, singer and multi-instrumentalist Abel Rocha and August Denhard performing on lute, theorbo, baroque guitar, oud and vihuela – takes a fresh, innovative approach to music with deep roots: from the son huasteco and son jarocho of Mexico, to Afro-Oaxacan music, Sephardic Jewish melodies, Spanish fandangos and xácaras, Arab-Andalusian song and Italian ciaccona and tarantella. With memorable stories and an incredible array of instruments from the Americas, Africa and Europe, the trio weaves together a tapestry of music, languages, culture, history and geography. It’s Mexico meets the Mediterranean, an acoustic journey tracing global roots and branches.
