Tacoma Art Museum filmed a fantastic piece in ArtXchange Gallery in honor of Fulgencio Lazo‘s partnership with the museum’s annual Dia de los Muertos festival. In addition to Lazo’s incredible tapetes (sand paintings) in the museum, TAM offers this full length performance by Trío Guadalevín as part of their 2021 Day of the Dead programming.
In the spirit of the festival, here is a musical performance from Trío Guadalevín: A unique collaboration between a folklorist from Mexico City, a lute/oud/guitarist specializing in the early music of Europe and a globe-traveling percussionist and arts educator, Trío Guadalevín explores the musical dialogue between Indigenous, European and African cultures, which define Latin American identity. With memorable stories and an incredible array of instruments from the Americas, Africa and Europe the trio weaves together a tapestry of music, languages, culture, history and geography.
Featuring: Visual Art by Fulgencio Lazo, Dance performances by Milvia Pacheco and Iris Viveros Avendaño
