Join the Old Town School for a musical tribute to Victor Jara, the great Chilean poet, singer-songwriter, and social activist, to celebrate his 85th birthday. Award-winning Latin American historian Steve J. Stern will team up with Chilean musicians Nelson and Paola Sosa and the Andean ensembles Raices del Ande and Los Sudakas to tell the story of Victor Jara's life, ideals, and music. Hear the extraordinary music that moved people in Chile and around the world.
