About the Program

The music of Colonial Mexico tells a complex story shaped by power, adaptation, and survival. European and Indigenous traditions collided and combined, creating a new soundscape. Piffaro’s wind players, joined by guest singers, plucked strings, and percussion, explore this repertoire. The Friday performance at Teatro Esperanza features a special appearance by the Aztec dancers of Ollin Yoliztli Calmecac
