SUMMARY:Music of the Americas: La Peña Community Chorus
DESCRIPTION:$15 adv. $20 dr.La Peña Community Chorus returns for anot
 her evening of beautiful music from the Americas. We sing you songs th
 at make you think, rhythms that make you want to dance, and tell stori
 es, both amusing and poignant. And let’s not forget those delicious 
 home-made goodies at intermission! The La Peña Community Chorus has 
 been singing songs of peace, justice, and hope since it began in 1978.
  Started by the Chilean exile community who founded La Peña Cultural 
 Center in Berkeley in 1975, the original mission of the Chorus was one
  of solidarity with the resistance against the dictatorship in Chile. 
 But over the years our focus has expanded to other countries, includin
 g the struggles of people in El Salvador, Nicaragua, Mexico, Cuba, and
  to various labor, community, and women’s struggles closer to home.Â
  Our music includes not only the Nueva Canción (or \"New Song Movemen
 t\") of Chile, but styles based in the folk and social justice movemen
 ts of all of Latin America. We sing in nursing homes, elders’ reside
 nces, hospitals, migrant labor camps, juvenile halls, rehabilitation c
 enters, and schools, in addition to our public concerts and performanc
 es. In 1995, we were the first North American chorus to take part in 
 the International Choral Festival in Santiago, Cuba. We followed up th
 at tour by visiting Chile in 1999, Mexico in 2002, and Peru in 2006.ht
