Bembé’s Learning From the Masters 2024 / La sesión de 2024 Aprendiendo de los Mayores

Created to pass on Afro-Latino musical traditions directly from cultural elders through oral and cultural praxis, Learning From the Masters brings master artists-in-residence from the African Diaspora to Milwaukee for short and long-term residencies, offering community practice and in-depth learning. Bembé’s 2024 Learning From Masters Artists in Residence include: Pablo Guerreiro (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), Beto Torrens (Puerto Rico), and Julia Gutierrez (Puerto Rico by way of NYC).

This project is supported by Marquette University and in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
