"Wemilere.com" CUBAN DANCE AND MUSIC FESTIVAL
“It is a cultural dance and music tour of Cuba,” says Danys “La Mora” Perez, artistic director of Oyu Oro Afro-Cuban Experimental Dance Ensemble. “It is a scenic work that illustrates the genuineness of the African and Latin cultures that crossed the Atlantic Ocean and settled in Cuba.”
In Cuban culture, Wemilere is a celebration dedicated to the Orishas of Cuba. Perez created “Wemilere.com” to communicate traditional values to contemporary audiences. “Technology is a part of the world’s new language,” Perez says. “Through social media, we communicate, come together and share information. With Wemilere.com, Cuban traditions enter a new age.”
The presentations include workshops, lecture demonstrations, performances and a Rumba with celebrated singers and musicians. The festival presents new choreographers who strengthen the artistic work of Cuban culture in New York City.
“We honor the Antillean culture by using various brushstrokes with wonderful colors, using new theatrical accents that highlight the strength and beauty of modern art,” adds Perez, a former prima ballerina of National Ballet Folklorico Cutumba.
A culturally diverse participation of Oyu Oro’s artists will perform choreographies with traditional fragments expressed through Caribbean songs, music and social dances.
