Nuestra Música: Music in Latino Culture will present the Latino face of American life through music and dance. Building on the accomplishments of the Smithsonian Folkways Recording Initiative, "Tradiciones/Traditions," Nuestra Música: Music in Latino Culture is the preview for a three-year series of Festival programs which will explore how Latinos use music to build community, to give meaning to life, and to assert their presence in a multicultural society.
