Living Percussions

 
 

The group Living Percussion presents a programme in which introduces ancient Aztecs and Mayan instruments into a specially designed orchestra and the students play a different instrument in each of the pieces.

We present the Huehuetl, an ancient tripod drum, the Tepozantle, a two tones wood instrument, Ocarinas, mud Aztec flutes, and Sonajas, Aztec instrument made of the crust of the seeds of a plant. Combining all this "new sounds" with xylophones, metal phones from the south of the country, piano cymbals, a drum set, we interpret music specially composed for children by Mr. Cesar Tort, Mexican composer.
