Join us for a special benefit concert celebrating the vibrant musical traditions of Argentina and Brazil, performed by Orchestra Without Borders in collaboration with award-winning Grooversity Percussion.
The program explores the rich legacy of Chiquinha Gonzaga, alongside works by Alberto Williams, Heitor Villa-Lobos, and Clarice Assad, highlighting the diverse rhythms and influences of Latin American classical music.
Soprano Hannah Shanefield returns as featured soloist, performing Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5, one of Villa-Lobos’s most beloved works.
The event will also feature a sale of artwork from Zambia collected by Communities Without Borders founder, Dick Bail.
