Latino and classical music: Reflections on connections
Tagged: California, Los AngelesPosted on: December 3rd, 2007
The Pasadena Symphony embarks on an exploration of classical music’s Latin roots with its new series “Clásica, las Raices de la Música,” opening tonight from 6 to 8 at the Autry National Center in Los Angeles.
Two years in the planning, the free series, funded by the James Irvine Foundation, is a way for the Pasadena Symphony Assn. “to reach deeper into the Latino community,” said Jerri Price, the organization’s director of education and community engagement, and invite people to see that Latin music “has not only been around for a long time but has inspired classical music as well.”"*
