Bomba In Maine

  • SMCC, 59 Lighthouse Cir. South Portland, ME USA (map)

A cultural art workshop featuring Bomba music and dancing. Bomba emerged from the musical traditions of enslaved Afro-Caribbeans in the 17th century. Bomba dancing is both fiery and subtle, with much emphasis on the expressive improvisations of individual dancers. Dancers may challenge the lead drummer by moving not just on the beat but at unexpected moments. Call-and-response songs add melody
