SUMMARY:Afro Yaqui Music Collective
DESCRIPTION:Named after the indigenous music of theÂ YaquiÂ peopleÂ of
  northern Mexico,Â TheÂ AfroÂ YaquiÂ Music CollectiveÂ fuses theÂ musi
 c of first nations in the Americas with the funk, jazz, and hip hop to
  create a new rhythm that liberates spirit and soul.AYMCÂ is a 9-piece
  outfit which descends from the ensembles of Guggenheim award-winnerÂ 
 Fred Ho, whose work was influenced by West African, global Indigenous 
 and East Asian musics. Co-led by 2014 ACE Award-winningÂ Yaqui-Mexican
  operatic vocalistÂ Gizelxanath RodreiguezÂ andÂ Fred Hoâ€™s Baritone 
 protegeÂ Ben Barson, the band uses their soul-stirring, heart-pumpingÂ
  sounds to respond to globalÂ issues from mass incarceration to ecocid
 e. Â This concert will also featureÂ special guest performance from Bo
 ston-based award-winning performance poetÂ Magdalena GomezÂ for a musi
 c and spoken-word collaboration.Â \n\nFor more information visit https
