Join us for “Women’s Voices in the NYC Afro-Puerto Rican Musical Renaissance”! This event will feature women who were part of the early bomba and plena scene in New York City before the emergence of Los Pleneros de la 21, and women who were inspired by this East Harlem-based ensemble to form all-women groups. It is part of the Pleneros de la 21 Oral History Project, and is directed by Elena Martínez, 2025 Folklorist in Residence at the Hemispheric Institute.
