Description:
The title is inspired by 'Tembandumba de la Quimbamba,' the main character of a poem by master Puerto Rican poet, Luis Pales Matos. The music, rhythmic and driving, alternates between chanting and singing. The two soloists -- soprano and alto -- plus a pair of Cuban claves add contrast and color to this lively a cappella work.
