Tembembe Ensamble Continuo returns to the Puget Sound region to combine music of the Spanish and Mexican Baroque guitar with today’s traditional Mexican songs. Their program, Un Fandango Barroco (A Baroque Fandango), demonstrates how and why Baroque and Traditional expressions are two faces of the same coin, distant in time and close in spirit.
Tembembe Ensamble Continuo has earned praise in Mexico, the Americas, Europe, and Asia for their truly novel interpretation of this flourishing music. Tembembe Ensamble Continuo was named the 2024 Christoph Wolff Distinguished Scholar Residency by Harvard University.
Lakewold Gardens is pleased to partner with Early Music Seattle, the premier presenter of early music in the area, for this performance in the style of its earlier chamber music concerts in an intimate house setting. A unique opportunity in the South Sound.
