Why did you start the VVC?Why did we start this collaborative?
We started this collaborative as a way to promote music and composers that we felt were under-represented in much of the Euro-centric musical canon. There is a vast wealth of incredible music from Latin America and the Iberian peninsula that is rarely performed, especially outside of its country of origin. Our goal is not only promote the music of these composers but to also create a platform to tell Latinx and Iberian stories through music. |
