\n855 Commonwealth Ave., 1st Floor<\/h4>\n

With a wild, powerful and unbridled sound, the Grammy-nominated Colombian ensemble Cimarr\u00f3n lives up to the meaning of its name: untamed. Cimarr\u00f3n creates a fiery kind of music called m\u00fasica llanera and the fast-paced, triple-meter dance music joropo, played on harp, bandola and cuatro accompanied by bass, caj\u00f3n and maracas. The seven-piece all-star team of instrumentalists and singers, led by harpist and composer Carlos Rojas, astonishes audiences with its melodic and rhythmic virtuosity, percussive drive and sabor Colombiano, Colombian flavor.<\/p>\n
