México Now: Mexamorphosis - In collaboration with the music program of the Americas Society “Music of the Americas”, we presented a celebration of Mexican musical diversity with Mexamorphosis. Led by Guadalupe Peraza, Mexamorphosis, created cross-cultural concerts that featured solo and polyphonic western early music in dialogue with traditional African, Turkish, and Mexican instrumentation. Music transitions between styles are made considering their historical and stylistic influences on one another, making the combination harmonically and instrumentally logical.
