In Palenquero (Palenque Man) singer and songwriter Nelda Piña pays homage to the town of San Basilio de Palenque, to its music, its cultural influence, and its deep Black roots . Although to be precise, Palenque has Black roots, Black trunk, Black branches and Black, beautiful flowers. The whole tree is black!
Were we listening?
In this episode we are fortunate to have Nelda Piña herself reflecting on the song she wrote and Matilde Herrera, instructor of Colombian folkloric dances with more than 50 years of experience, trained practitioner of ethnic education, director and choreographer of Kumbé Dance Company, and a Palenquera who has represented Palenque culture in many festivals around the globe and who has received numerous awards for her work.
This episode accompanies the Yo Me Llamo Cumbia/My Name Is Cumbia episode of the second season of our podcast devoted to the cumbia rhythm and dance, check it out! We invited great experts!
We hope this track helps to add value to your listening and awareness in your dancing!
