Alta California, Part II: California before the Gold Rush was an unspoiled paradise for the Mexican rancheros who occupied it. Their music reflects the grace, beauty, and abundance of their surroundings, telling tales of early California life that still drift on the warm breezes, enchanting all who listen. These Mexicanos were blessed also in the musical influences that came to them through their thriving ports. Dance music from the continent, Tangos from Argentina, and Flamenco from Spain melded with Mexican music (itself an earlier hybrid of Spanish and indigenous Native American culture) to produce one of the richest, most sonorous and tuneful musical traditions to be found in the New or Old Worlds. This is the birthplace of Mariachi: where romance blooms on every tree, and the passionate serenading continues until dawn, to the gentle strumming of guitars. Carpenter Hall at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Tickets available at the OSF Box Office. |

The Song That Never Ends: Traditional Music of Galicia. Guest artist Shira Kammen. The road to Santiago de Compostela winds through the rugged mountains of Galicia, in the remote extremity of northwestern Spain. Pilgrims to the celebrated cathedral encounter a sparsely populated land graced by an ancient culture, whose spoken language, Gallegan, calls to mind the gentle sweetness of Portuguese. Celtic and Iberian elements exist side by side, and create a hybrid culture that is like no other in Spain. From this potent mix rises a most exquisite music-at once powerful, plaintive, rough and refined- telling the old stories that rise everywhere from the fertile land and sea. A generous people, the Galicians have welcomed the pilgrims for centuries, but the guests have also left behind gifts of music from the great centers of Europe, dropped like gems along the road. The travelers return home, newly purified, and bearing memories of wild, wind-swept melody. While in Galicia, the song goes on forever. | ||||||||||
