Tembembe Ensamble Continuo returns to Seattle to combine music of the Spanish and Mexican Baroque guitar with today’s traditional Mexican sones. Their program, Un Fandango Barocco, demonstrates how and why Baroque and Traditional expressions are two faces of the same coin, distant in time and close in spirit. Tembembe Ensamble Continuo has earned praise in Mexico, the Americas, Europe, and Asia for their truly novel interpretation of this flourishing music. Tembembe Ensamble Continue was named the 2024 Christoph Wolff Distinguished Scholar Residency by Harvard University.

Tembembe Ensamble Continuo regresa a Seattle para combinar la música de la guitarra barroca española y mexicana con los sones tradicionales mexicanos de hoy. Su programa, Un fandango barroco, demuestra el por qué y el cómo las expresiones tradicional y barroca son dos caras de la misma moneda, distantes en el tiempo y cercanas en espíritu. Tembembe Ensamble Continuo ha cultivado elogios en México, las Américas, Europa y Asia por su novedosa interpretación de esta floreciente música. El grupo recibió la Residencia Académica Distinguida Christoph Wolff 2024 de la Universidad de Harvard.
