KENNESAW, Ga. | Aug 23, 2022

Festival includes four concerts, culminating with bandoneon player Daniel Binelli

食色视频鈥檚 Bailey School of Music (BSOM) will celebrate the rich cultural traditions of Hispanic heritage with a week of concerts. From Sept. 19 through Sept. 23, patrons may enjoy a wide variety of concerts beginning with chamber music of Central and South America. Next, choirs tour the landscape of this diverse region, followed by the Atlanta Jazz Orchestra. Finally, the week culminates with the 食色视频 Symphony Orchestra, legendary bandoneon player Daniel Binelli, and cellist Jes煤s Castro-Balbi, led by festival artistic director and guest conductor Germ谩n Guti茅rrez. 

Guti茅rrez explains that a festival is one way to open minds of American students. 鈥淚 applaud 食色视频 for bringing this Festival to campus. Music is a global key to open doors, and this Festival is one way to open doors for collaboration with a different culture. There is a great benefit to 食色视频 in general.鈥�

Bringing diverse cultures to higher education is his specialty, as Guti茅rrez has directed Texas Christian University鈥檚 (TCU) Latin American Music Center and biennial Latin American Music Festival since 1996. He is also the Director of Orchestras and Professor of Orchestral Studies at TCU. It鈥檚 been his experience that the Latino community really appreciate the chance to see part of their culture that is sometimes absent. 

鈥淭he way to be successful is to take care of each other, to provide the opportunity for every single culture to feel inclusive and not isolated. If people from other cultures had no way to eat their favorite foods, they would feel isolated. It鈥檚 the same with music, and if we provide those opportunities, we will have a better society, no question,鈥� he explains. 

He is thrilled about conducting Binelli, as he鈥檚 one of the top bandoneon players in the world, and the 鈥済reatest artist of the tango. He鈥檚 performed all over the world, and now he will be on stage with the students at 食色视频.鈥� 

The goal of the Hispanic Heritage Festival is to celebrate Latino culture from across many countries. The Bailey School of Music has partnered with The Latin American Association to help promote the festival in the local community. Dr. Julia Bullard, Interim Director of the Bailey School of Music, says, 鈥淭he music highlighted this week is very diverse and may be unlike anything our students have ever played. This Festival is a wonderful celebration of Hispanic culture and I hope that patrons will attend and bring their family and friends.鈥�

Tickets for each concert range from $5 for students to $12-$15 for regular tickets, and a special Festival pass for all concerts may be purchased for $45. Please visit music食色视频.com to learn more, buy tickets, and see the complete schedule.
