Join us for an evening of great music! Thinking Inside the Box invites you to a magical evening of music as the final event of the project, exploring revolutions in Latin America.

Santa María de Iquique is a cantata composed in 1969 by the Chilean composer Luis Advis Vitaglich, combining elements of both classical and folkloric/indigenous musical traditions. The theme of the cantata is a historical industrial dispute that ended with the massacre of miners in the northern Chilean city of Iquique in 1907. The cantata expresses the struggle between the miners and their exploiters. This cantata is a claim for the end to exploitation and an egalitarian and free world.

King’s Brazil Ensemble will perform in this concert a string orchestra version of the cantata, arranged by Osiel Vega Durán, in 2007.

Direction: Dr. Vinicius Mariano de Carvalho
