Sones de Mexico Ensemble
Capitol Theatre
Madison, WI
Elementary
Field Trip Permission form
for this trip
Sones de México Ensemble teaches about Mexican music and dance by recreating the atmosphere of a traditional fandango (dancefiesta), where the most colorful, joyous and upbeat sones are played and danced until sunrise. And the audience is invited to participate! The group's joyous interpretation of the Mexican son tradition includes many regional styles, combined with acrobatic dance displays and bright four-part harmony vocals. Specially created for young audiences, the presentation features a masked dance, lessons about Aztec cosmology and the ecosystem, musical concepts of tempo and polyrhythms and the most famous Mexican son,
"La Bamba."
Students will
leave in the morning
from their school by school bus
and return by about 2:40 p.m.
