Yosvany Terry & Baptiste Trotignon present "Ancestral Memories" at Oberon Theater, Thursday, Oct. 19
(Published: October 12, 2017)

Cuban-American musician-composer Yosvany Terry and French pianist Baptiste Trotignon have teamed up to create "Ancestral Memories," a unique and exciting program inspired by the rich and diverse musical traditions that emerged from the African Diaspora in the United States and former French colonies in the Americas.

"Ancestral Memories" captures the rhythms, melodies, and harmonies of the Caribbean, New Orleans and French Louisiana, re-imagined through 21st century aesthetics and a jazz sensibility.

The pair will bring the sounds of "Ancestral Memories" to the Oberon Theater in Cambridge, Massachusetts on Thursday, October 19. Terry on alto and soprano saxophones and chekeré, and Trotignon on piano will be joined by Yunior Terry on bass and Clarence Penn on drums. Tickets for the 8:00pm set are $25.
