What is Tumbao?!⁠ ⁠

The word originates in Afro-Cuban music as a basic rhythm played on the bass but in Afro-Caribbean slang, this word has come to mean style, grace, rhythm, flair, panache, vigor, attitude, poise, confidence,⁠ and an unapologetic in-your-face sense of self!⁠ ⁠ Join us in a musical and visual celebration of Afro-Latin culture that will include traditional Afro-Cuban and Afro-Dominican music as well as works by Montsalvatge, Bor, Lecuona, and more.
