“Nowhere to Fall” Conversation & Participatory Concert – Rueda de Bullerengue 
Saturday, April 16; 5:30pm EST 
Musical Arts Center Rm MC066, Jacobs School of Music 
The Colombian Student Association at IU (CAIUB) and would like to invite you to the “Nowhere to Fall” documentary preview followed by a live performance of Bullerengue music! 
Nowhere to Fall is a documentary about the lives of three singers of an ancestral, afro descent musical genre, developed in Colombia, South America, called “Bullerengue”. The documentary features the typical Bullerengue singers and how they have healed from violence and social unrest through their music. Bullerengue is a musical genre that utilizes percussion and the singers’ voices and dance as an expression of internal and collective feelings and social change. The event will consist of a snippet preview of the film, a short talk about the making of the documentary, followed by a live showcase of the music. For this reason, the CAIUB is hosting one of the singers featured in the film, directly from Colombia, who will perform a participatory musical session where the audience can interact with the drummers and the singers to make Bullerengue together. It will be a great opportunity for students and staff to get to know more about Colombia’s cultural wealth through its music, a rare event like this will surely enrich your students’ lives. Join us on April 16th as we expand our musical and sensory skills and learn how to participate, heal and communicate with music. This is a free event for all ages.
