It is Hispanic Heritage Month and we are proud to feature a composition by Argentinian living composer Fernando Manuel Dieguez in our Resonance Book 1.
This lovely piece, titled Chamamé is the first movement of a larger work for cello ensemble called Enchelación.
Chamamé is a rhythm originally from the province of Corrientes in Argentina, but it has spread to the south of Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay.

🇨🇩 Happy Independence Day to the Democratic Republic of the Congo! Today marks 66 years of independence and celebrates the resilience, strength, and rich cultural heritage of the Congolese people.

We’re also thrilled to celebrate the DRC’s historic first-ever FIFA World Cup victory over the weekend! Their recent win advanced them into the knockout stage for the first time in the nation’s history 🥳🏟️

In our video, you’ll hear Music Institute of Chicago Pre-Twinkle students led by teachers Bianca Prado and Julia Wen learning call and response through the DRC folk song, Before Dinner.

Wishing everyone in the DRC a joyful Independence Day! 🇨🇩
