Listeners will hear a bilingual Musical Fairytale in a Peter-and-the-Wolf-style performance. A storyteller will narrate “La Cucarachita Martina”, a traditional Cuban/Puerto Rican fairy tale, while musicians play music from the opera Carmen to bring the story to life.
In addition, the musicians will provide an instrument demonstration and play contemporary songs by celebrated Latin-American composers and musicians.

About Día (Día de los niños/El Día de los libros (Day of the Children and Day of the Book):
El Día de los niños/El Día de los libros, also known simply as Día, is a celebration of children, families, and reading that culminates yearly on April 30. “Children’s Day” has been celebrated in many countries around the world officially since 1925.
After learning about Mexico’s tradition of celebrating April 30th as El Día del niño, children’s book author Pat Mora helped create a new holiday in the United States emphasizing the importance of literacy for children of all linguistic and cultural backgrounds, linking families to diverse books, languages and cultures. DIA is also known as Diversity in Action!
