HISPANIC CULTURAL EDUCATION FOR TODAY'S GENERATION

Fostering creativity, discovery, and connection through Classical Hispanic Arts education in New York City.

INTRODUCING:
ALL NEW
SCHOOL ASSEMBLY SHOW:

Music and Dances
from the Spanish Americas

Students are the star players in a bi-lingual arts education program that highlights 18th century Peruvian music, dance, visual arts and storytelling, using the “Trujillo Codex'' as inspiration.  All workshop participants will learn to sing, dance and make art. Students will have the opportunity to display their art work and perform for their peers in a final showcase. 

 

Our program, “A Suite of Three Peruvian Dances” takes us back to life in Spanish America of the 1700s. Since there was no film or video from that time to capture what life was like during that time period, we rely on other sources, such as the Codex Martinez Compañón, also known as the  Trujillo Codex from Peru; this set of books contains over one thousand watercolor paintings and twenty musical scores, all documenting life in the Trujillo region of Peru. The watercolors depict dancers in colorful costumes, musicians playing all types of instruments, including European and Native American and African wind and percussion instruments.

Creativity

Comprehensive educational programs for students of all abilities in classical Hispanic arts, both virtual and in person.

Discovery

Multicultural curriculum with tangible impacts on social and team-building skills. 

Connection
