Andy Palacio and the Garifuna Collective with Umalali

Agúzate TV recorded a spectacular event that honored the memory and life-long work of the Garifuna people's greatest cultural ambassador, Andy Palacio who passed away suddenly on January 19, 2008. This tour, organized to celebrate the recent worldwide recognition of Garifuna's greatest traditional musicians through the recordings "Watina" and "Umalali: The Garifuna Women's Project", continues in Andy's honor and features top Garifuna artists from these recordings plus notable additions. The Garifuna are a people residing in Central America, descended from shipwrecked African slaves and Carib and Arawak Indians, who have retained their ancestral language and traditions in the face of overwhelming odds. Old Town School of Folk Music is proud to offer this special concert presenting the endangered arts of this unique culture.
