The ongoing evolution of cumbia, the borderless and tremendously popular Afro-Latin, Indigenous, and European-influenced dance music, finds its contemporary culmination in the modern Nueva Cumbia movement. Nueva Cumbia draws equal inspiration from Jamaican reggae, experimental rock, Latin Hip-Hop, Brazilian tropicália, fusion jazz and the century-long history of cumbia's wildly fertile recorded past. One of the foremost innovators of this movement is the Colombian composer and musician Mario Galeano Toro, leader of the internationally acclaimed Frente Cumbiero quartet. The collective's collaborations with artists as diverse as the dub DJ Mad Professor, the classical combo Kronos Quartet, Japanese folk band Minyo Crusaders and electronic producer Quantic give a sense of Frente Cumbiero's varied creative tactics. Get a taste of the group's retro-psychedelic and highly danceable tropical style at a Lincoln Center debut driven by crazy keys, uplifting horns, and energetic percussion.
