General Admission: $14 The Seattle Folklore Society is pleased to welcome back Sin Fronteras
("Without Borders"), a 3 member, Seattle based ensemble that
interprets songs from across Central & South America and the Caribbean.
Founded in 2002, the group draws heavily from the Nueva Canción song
movement, with an emphasis on Andean instrumentation, three-part vocal harmony,
Chilean and Argentinean composers. Sin Fronteras is committed to unity among
all peoples of the Americas and beyond. Diego Coy, Abel Rocha, and Patricia
Mazuela hail from Colombia, Mexico and Chile. They play a variety of
instruments including harp, guitar, cuatro, charango, quena, zampona,
quenacho, and percussion. For this show, Sin Fronteras will be joined by 2 special guest musicians
and a dancer. Pamela Emerson is a founding member of Sin Fronteras and has
played and recorded with "Trillium" (a Seattle-based vocal trio)
and Alaska singer-songwriter Esther Golton. Heather Carman has a passion for
world music, and currently performs with Sin Fronteras and the Persian
ensemble "Kamand." Claudia Moran is a dancer from Argentina. Reserve online, or
