Jazz event featuring
Bomba con
Buya
.
Bomba con Buya is a Chicago-based ensemble with a traditional yet innovative approach to Afro-Puerto Rican bomba. Developed during the 18th century among the island’s African descendants, bomba is Puerto Rico’s oldest surviving music and dance form.
Buya means ‘good spirit’ in Taino, and the group strives to embody this idea through high impact performances and community-centered workshops, including artistic dialogue with historians in Puerto Rico and collaborative projects with groups such as Jarochicanos (Mexico) and Laruni Hati (Belize).
The ensemble celebrates its 7th anniversary this year. However, several members of Bomba con Buya have been committed to studying and sharing bomba for more than twenty years.
