Para más información llame al 612.871.4444 y en info@intermediaArts.org About Son Monarcas |http://www.sonmonarcas.com/  Son Monarcas is a Chicago-based ensemble comprised of musicians who are well versed in the Afro-Mestizo genres of Mexican folk music as well as other world music genres as a result of having lived in the culturally rich Windy City. They blend the traditional with the contemporary by creating original arrangements of son Jarocho while retaining the foundation of the traditional style. Some of their original compositions and interpretations include the accordion, adding a European influence to their authentic Mexican roots. Their performances also showcase the various styles of the Americas. From the timeless sones of Mexico to the sounds of South America, such as cumbia and tango, Son Monarcas takes you on a musical migration, like that of the Monarch Butterfly, from the United States to the far corners of South America.
