Canciones para ti (Songs for You): Una celebración del Día de los Muertos

With Guest Conductor Diego Barbosa-Vásquez

Enjoy music from Ramon Ayala, José José, Celia Cruz and Rocio Durcal with your Greeley Philharmonic this Día de Los Muertos. On November 1st, this concert explores themes of life and death. To start, “La Llorona” explores mystifying folklore themes and death. Then, get in your feels with “El Triste" by José José. The second half of the concert honors life with upbeat music. The norteño, “Un Rinconcito en el Cielo” by Ramon Ayala, and the bolero, “Amor Eterno” by Rocío Durcal, express love. To end the night, dance to cumbia and salsa with “Colombia Tierra Querida” by Lucho Bermudez and “La Vida es un Carnaval” by Celia Cruz.
