Tobin Center will present Pachanga De San Patricio in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, with a “FolkPunkRock” festival exploring traditional music from new perspectives. Cross cultural influences combine to shape contemporary music in this event.
This Pachanga is rounded out by San Antonio dancers presenting samples of the interesting 6:8 rhythm found almost exclusively in Veracruz (Huapango), Ireland (the jig), and Western Africa (wawa-nko, or snake rhythm).
