Members of Sandunga entertain marketgoers last month at the Eugene Saturday Market
Music celebrates Latin American culture
The Latin American folk band Sandunga
will take you on a musical tour Saturday
as they perform traditional songs from
around that region
The band, made up of eight University stu
dents and graduates from Mexico. Chile. Ecua
dor and the United States will perform on the
Main Stage at 1 p m
One of our purposes is to promote the cub
lure to take samples from each region and
show the differences said Sandunga member
Freddy Vilehes There is a lot of variation, but
they all have the same spirit
Band members play a total of about 40 in
struments. each one indigenous to a certain re
gion in Latin America
We play all these instruments that belong
to different regions and that we use for differ
ent songs but we try to incorporate them to
gether so we can create a music that sort of
identifies and unifies the whole Latin American
culture Vilehes said
The band was created 10 years ago by Ar
mando Morales and Mary O Connor, who met
when O Connor went to Mexico as an exchange
student
In addition to performing in concert and as
part of cultural festivals, the band has spent
the last five summers touring migrant farm
workers' camps in the northern and southwest
ern United States
In 1985, Sandunga |Oined forces with a thea
ter group and together they spend several
weeks each year performing for migrant farm
workers and their families.
In addition to playing music, band members
perform in the plays which focus on the dan
gers of pesticides and the need for education
We believe in our cause. Morales said
We turn down other offers in the summer and
a lot of people say that s bad for the band but
we believe in our cause
Keeping the Latin American culture alive for
the Latino community in the United States is
important. Vilches said, but the band also
wants to provide a new experience for those
who aren't familiar with Latin American music
We really promote the culture of Latin
America and expose the American people to
something they never get exposed to.' Vilches
said
We bring all that traditional music in here
and do new arrangements so it suits the band
he said The main idea is that we re trying to
recover some of the music that has been lost
