Celebrate ORGULLO’s 2022 Festival brings the Magic of Hispanic & Indigenous Art, Music, Dance & Theater to Miami this October
Hispanic and Indigenous Art, Music and Dance are generally attributed to a complex social and historical evolution that took place in the Americas after the arrival of the European colonists, specifically the Spaniards and Columbus. The Arts are some of the few positives that came from this invasion of the New World, beautifully integrated with the rich indigenous people already here, and of course, the addition of African slaves and their proud sounds, rhythms, traditions, & culture.
Celebrate ORGULLO showcases how much of these forms of the Arts have persisted, developed, evolved and defined the Hispanic & Latin Experience from the Americas, across the world… and what better place for this than the Capital of Las Americas – South Florida!
Celebrate ORGULLO's 2022 Festival trae la magia del arte, la música, la danza y el teatro hispanos e indígenas a Miami este octubre
El Arte, la Música y la Danza Hispánica e Indígena se atribuyen generalmente a una compleja evolución social e histórica que tuvo lugar en las Américas tras la llegada de los colonos europeos, específicamente los españoles y Colón. Las artes son algunos de los pocos aspectos positivos que surgieron de esta invasión del Nuevo Mundo, bellamente integradas con los ricos pueblos indígenas que ya estaban aquí y, por supuesto, la adición de esclavos africanos y sus orgullosos sonidos, ritmos, tradiciones y cultura.
Celebrate ORGULLO muestra cuánto de estas formas de las artes han persistido, desarrollado, evolucionado y definido la experiencia hispana y latina de las Américas, en todo el mundo... y qué mejor lugar para esto que la Capital de Las Américas: ¡el sur de la Florida.

THE HISTORY | LA HISTORIA
It is important to remember that the indigenous people of the New World had their own music. The Maya culture gave great attention to music producing all kinds of percussion and wind instruments, and fortunately, this original expression has persisted to date in traditional Latin|Hispanic music like South America's Andean music.
The language was the first contribution that the Spanish and Portuguese powers brought to the New World. Latin|Hispanic music is, in fact, defined to a large extent by the Spanish and Portuguese languages. While Portuguese came to define the music from Brazil, Spanish language defined the rest of Latin America.
The African slaves that arrived in the New World brought with them all the traditions and beats of their continent. The African influence in Latin|Hispanic music is so big that this could be the single most important element in its musical history.
Whether it’s the Salsa, Mambo, Cha Cha Cha, Macarena or Lambada Dances, all of them have two common factors – rhythm and rhyme. The frilly colorful dresses, haute pair of heels, and gorgeous bodies have enamored endless spectators. The history of these dances can also be traced back to Europeans and African slaves. As a recreational activity, these slaves would create music with the beat of the drums or with tapping of feet. This form of music developed over the years, into Latin music for such dances. They would dance to these beats, to relax after a hard day’s labor. Latin music later evolved as an amalgamation of Jazz and Afro-American music.
