Thanks to the cooperation between the HfMT and the Technological University of Uruguay (UTEC), an open Candombe workshop will take place. The idea is to convey the peculiarities of this special rhythm from Uruguay. There will be an informative lecture by teachers and students from Uruguay and a group of drummers will be in Hamburg to experience the sound live. Candombe is the cultural manifestation recognized by the Afro-descendant community in Uruguay as the heritage of their African slave ancestors. The deep roots of this expression in the country's history and culture led to its recognition by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
