From a street filled with open windows in any Latin
American neighborhood, in which each window blows
out to the street a different mixture of sounds, comes
Rumba Tabaco y Café, (Jam Session, Tobacco, and
Coffee). European string based instruments and
African hand drums echo the voices of centuries of
love, pain, dreams, and disillusions suffered and
celebrated in Latin America. There are more than five
hundred years of history going through the lyrics,
sounds, and rhythms of Rumba Tabaco y Café. Their
performance is a gathering of friends and family with an
invitation to sing and dance our joys and our sorrows.
