Yesterday at the Barbican, we came together in rhythm, voice and movement for a beautiful .circle. 🥁
Thank you to Maestra Darlina Sáenz Garcés for sharing her powerful voice, wisdom and tradition with us in London. Gracias Maestra for reminding us of the strength, joy and community at the heart of bullerengue.
Thank you to Akolá Tambó and to everyone who joined the circle, families, children, musicians, dancers and people from so many different backgrounds. It was truly special to see such a diverse turnout connecting through this Afro-Colombian tradition.
Bullerengue is celebration, resilience and togetherness, and yesterday the rueda was full of all of that. ❤️
