Tradici贸n en Transici贸n
From Roots to Resonance
Bulla En El Barrio
LEIMAY PRESENTING SERIES 2025: AT HOME
This summer, At Home welcomes Bulla en el Barrio with a special evening drawn from their ongoing project Tradici贸n in Transici贸n鈥攁n upcoming album-in-the-making led by Carolina Oliveros and Camilo Rodr铆guez. Rooted in the ancestral power of bullerengue and expanded through diasporic musical languages from the Caribbean and North Africa, the project navigates tradition as a living, migratory force. During their residency at CAVE, the ensemble has engaged in collective experimentation with guest master artists, generating sonic landscapes that honor deep cultural memory while embracing transformation. This performance offers an intimate glimpse into that process鈥攁 moment of sharing from a work still in evolution. Featuring original compositions and dynamic arrangements, the evening invites audiences into a space of resonance and renewal, where Afro-Colombian rhythms meet global currents. Tradici贸n en Transici贸n is not just a title鈥攊t鈥檚 a practice, a question, and a journey into how we carry tradition forward through sound, collaboration, and the creative act.
