Una charla especialmente pensada para reconectarnos con el arte y sus expresiones a través de la historia. Al concurrir a un museo o a una galería de arte, muchas veces podemos sentirnos ajenos a las obras como si estas parecieran no estar realizadas para nosotros. En esta presentación veremos como debemos acercarnos al fenomeno estético y sus categorías de belleza y fealdad para pdoer apreciar y disfrutar el arte en toda magnitud.

A spirited holiday celebration

A joyful concert experience featuring music from the cathedrals of Mexico and beyond.  Fusing Old World Baroque traditions with New World rhythms and dance, these festive works showcase the broad range of cultures and music in the 17th-century Americas. With vocals, percussion and the energy of Mercury, this will truly be a holiday celebration to remember.

This concert is made possible in part by the Houston Endowment and the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance.

El Milagro del Recuerdo

A world premiere and prequel to the mariachi opera Cruzar la Cara de la Luna, El Milagro del Recuerdo/The Miracle of Remembering brings audiences back to where it all began, Michoacán, Mexico. Set during Christmas, the opera lovingly explores the themes of traditions and familial bonds while it’s characters deal with life-changing decisions and dream of something more.

By joining librettist and director Leonard Foglia, Mexican composer Javier Martínez continues the legacy of mariachi opera established by his late father, José “Pepe” Martínez.

Sung in Spanish with projected English translation.
