¡Tertulia!
Welcome to ¡Tertulia! When a group of individuals
comes together and shares their ideas, talents, and anecdotes in the
spirit of interpreting life, when there is song and poetry and when
there is wit in conversation, then we say that a ¡Tertulia!
has formed. ¡Tertulia! on WFCR is the space where a
dialogue takes place among Spanish speakers and all those who are
interested in Latin American culture and in the music, the arts,
the language and the issues of actuality for Latinos in New England.
On ¡Tertulia! a music lover will find Latin Jazz, Boleros,
Salsa, Merengue, Nueva Trova, Tango and Folk music from Puerto Rico,
Central America, Colombia, the Andean Region and Spain. And because
there has traditionally been a great exchange of culture and music
among the nationalities of the Americas, listeners will sometimes
find the Spanish language selection interspersed with music from
Brazil, Haiti, Martinique, Guadaloupe and Jamaica.
Another element that is a constant on ¡Tertulia! is
news and public affairs. News pieces in English and Spanish, discussion
of topics of importance to the Latino community, and the weekly
calendar of events, Página Informativa, are heard on ¡Tertulia!.
If you are a Latino or a Latina living in the Western New England
area, you can become a participant of ¡Tertulia! by
tuning in every Sunday from 8:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. And, if you
are not yet fully acquainted with the richness and beauty of Latin
American music and culture you are invited to explore them with
us!
