The above is reported by Joaquín Cruz, Director of Cultural Activities and head of the Cultural Representative Groups of the University of the Americas Puebla, about a festival that is promoted by the local H. City Council through the Municipal Institute of Art and Culture, with the participation of INBAL through its National Coordination of Music and Opera, and among other organizations, by the Convent of San Jerónimo, and the Convent of the Santísima Trinidad, which will be stages to which is added the Patio of the Municipal Palace, the City Theater, and photos of the UDLAP campus, among other squares and venues.

Joaquín Cruz details that “all the master classes that result from this festival will be held in our educational institution. And we are going to have a visit from artists like Horacio Franco, the Tembembe Ensemble and La Fontegara. In the Temple of San Jerónimo we will have the participation of our Chamber Choir with the exhibition, titled “Ave Verum”, which will feature a repertoire of viceregal and 20th century music, under the direction of teacher Honey Moreira. Our Chamber Orchestra performs on Friday, March 22 in the Third Order Chapel of the Franciscan Temple of San Pedro Cholula, among other activities.”

“In addition, for example, Dr. Paola Gutiérrez will teach a course on the interpretation of music from the Mexican viceregal period from the 16th to the 18th century. It is worth mentioning the holding of three master classes, among them The three faces of the baroque, which will be taught by Mtro. Horacio Franco and Mr. “Daniel Ortega.”

The master classes that will be held at UDLAP within the framework of the festival are open to students and the general public upon registration.

In this context of presentations and cultural dissemination that characterizes the cultural life of the UDLAP, whose rector is Dr. Luis Ernesto Derbez, Joaquín Cruz comments that with the cultural representative groups of the UDLAP “we are already in the preparations for our cultural season in the that we will soon present the musical “La Bamba.El Musical”, of which 8 performances will be offered between April 18 and 28 on our campus in the Guillermo and Sofía Jenkins Auditorium.”

Joaquín Cruz highlights the educational impulse that UDLAP gives to its students from various artistic disciplines and other careers who join the theater, dance and music casts through presentations in various forums at the local and national level. In this context, the issue that stands out is that “we are also in a period of offering artistic scholarships, so on behalf of UDLAP we invite all those who follow us to be part of the cultural representative teams seeking to integrate them into the Artistic Support Program.” .
