At the invitation of Arturo O’Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra, Michele Roseewopman curated a night of music at HOSTOS Center for the Arts and Culture in tribute to the late master percussionist Eddie Bobè.
"My (and Eddie's) long-time associates---percussion legends Román Díaz, Felix Sanabria, Gene Golden, vocalists Abraham Rodriguez and Hector “Papote” Jimenez and flautist/saxophonist Jay Rodriguez-- joined me, Arturo and the ALJO in the performance of a repertoire that spotlighted compositions by myself, Arturo and Chico O’Farrill, as well as a celebration of rumba--a uniquely Cuban musical form.
Eddie Bobè was an inspired creative force and master of folkloric percussion and vocal traditions of the African Diaspora. He was a foundational figure in the New York world of percussionists and his old school knowledge and respect combined with his experimental and unique ideas were crucial to both the retention and expansion of these musical and cultural expressions.”

Michele Rosewoman's New Yor Uba featuring Román Díaz
South Arts Project; Rosewoman’s “A Function At The Junction”. November 11, 2021
A recipient of a 2021 South Arts Jazz Road Grant, Rosewoman's Creative Residency Grant made it possible to curate and present a collaborative, multimedia event entitled
“A Function at the Junction: Ancestral Bridge, Musical Streams” / “Una Función en el Cruce: Puente Ancestral, Corrientes Musicales”.
As part of a unique community of musicians here in NYC with deep ties to both spiritually-based Cuban folkloric traditions and contemporary jazz, bringing together my New Yor-Uba ensemble, Francisco Mora Catlett's Afro Horn and Román Díaz's Rumba Ensemble was an opportunity to incorporate and stage the work of treasured co-creators who also highlight these traditions in unique contemporary contexts, This building of bridges between artists & cultural voices through live performance and documentation resulted in a 2-hour film that was recorded, edited and produced by Onel Mulet.
November 11 2021 at the Flamboyan Theater NYC.
Presented by Arts for Art.
