This is accomplished through documentation, education and live performance. With a focus on the art form of drum and dance: authentic sounds of Afro Puerto Rican Bomba and Plena rhythms. Here passionate dancers demand the drum. In Bomba music the magnetic dynamism is in the exchange via lead drum and principal dancer. In this driving thumping music the drummer follows the dancer who in turn is creating beats too. Hear the fusion of drums and guitars in songs from the many influences here and there.\r\nSegunda Quimbamba originally was founded as the Pleneros de La Segunda over 25 years ago, the group has evolved to become one of the most beloved and significant leaders nationally in the genres in the Diaspora. The band has performed to international audiences as well as the island residents. The group performs and presents interactive educational demos and workshops for all types of venues, public and private events, schools, universities, parades, festivals and concerts.\r\nThe organization is rooted in the inspiration of local residents through the years, asking us to do more. They express their desire to strengthen and build community in support of one another. Love and longing moves us to preserve cultural customs and traditions. Through music and movement we can connect. Exchanging cultural values is a way of life of Puerto Rico’s people no matter where we are, embracing and uplifting is our anthem, as well as many countries around the world. We believe passionately that music and dance heals. " } ] } ] ```
