Growing up on the Upper West Side in the 1970s, I fell in
love with the sounds forged in New York City by Latino musicians who mixed
Puerto Rican and Cuban beats with soul and jazz to create a new and defining
rhythm: salsa. Now, some 35 years later as president of WGBH, I’m thrilled to
introduce you to one of the most ambitious
music-and-history series we’ve ever produced.
Latin Music USA (see page 10) is a multimedia, bilingual celebración of Latin music and
the rise of Latino culture in the United States,
anchored by a four-part documentary that
will make you want to get up and dance. It’s a
fresh take on our musical history, spanning
five decades and multiple musical genres to
present an astonishing mix of sounds
created by Latinos and embraced by
all of us.
The project is the brainchild of
WGBH executive producer Elizabeth
Deane and senior producer Adriana
Bosch, who first conceived it over
lunch in the WGBH cafeteria. “Adriana
and I were talking about a big
musical series I had originated for
PBS, a 10-part history of rock ‘n’ roll
that critics and audiences had liked,” Elizabeth recalls. “Adriana was born in
Cuba and she’s passionate about music, and we wondered if something similar
to Rock & Roll might be done with the amazing range of Latin music and
artists in this country.
“We’ve tried to live up to the expectations that Latino audiences will
bring to the films,” Elizabeth continues, “and at the same time, reach out to
our wider audience—giving them the pleasure of music they know, and the
discovery of new artists and new music.”
Broadcast in both English and Spanish, Latin Music USA is enhanced by
a bilingual website (wgbh.org/latinmusicusa) with interactive features,
dynamic video clips, and a player that streams the entire series in both languages, so you can watch—or rewatch—it anytime!
And on Friday, October 2, we’re bringing the series home, literally, to
our Brighton studios, where you’re invited to our Latin Music USA Premiere
Party, with live Latin music and dancing. (See page 2 for details and ticket
information.)
I hope you’ll join us for the party, and then tune in this groundbreaking
series, made possible by your generous support. It’s gonna move you!

It’s Gonna Move You!
From Latin jazz and mambo to salsa, Tejano, Chicano rock, Latin pop
and reggaeton, Latin Music USA tells the story of the rise of new
American music forged from powerful Latin roots and reveals the often
overlooked influence of Latin
music on jazz, hip-hop, rhythm
and blues and rock ‘n’ roll—and
on all of American culture. It’s a
fresh take on America’s musical
history, reaching across time and
musical genres to embrace the
exciting hybrid sounds created by
Latinos, musical fusions that have
deeply enriched popular music in
the US over more than five
decades. Jimmy Smits narrates.

This Old
Telescope
The Hubble Space Telescope has
enthralled scientists and the
public by capturing deep views of
the cosmos and a wealth of data from distant galaxies. It has helped
lead the search for alien planets and is a key tool in cosmology’s quest
to investigate and map the universe’s mysterious dark matter. In spring
2009, NASA sent a shuttle crew on a risky mission to service Hubble for
the last time. From training to launch, Nova presents the inside story of
the mission and the extraordinary challenges faced by the rescue crew.

Taking On the Taliban
Tens of thousands of fresh American troops now are on the move in
Afghanistan, led by a new commander and armed with a counterinsurgency plan that builds on the lessons of Iraq. In a land long
known as the “graveyard of empires,” can US forces succeed? Through
interviews with top US commanders on the ground, embeds with US
forces, and fresh reporting from
Washington, Frontline examines the
US strategy in Afghanistan and
Pakistan—a fight that promises to
be longer and more costly than most
Americans understand.

In the devastating aftermath of the economic meltdown, Frontline sifts the ashes
for clues about why it happened and examines critical moments when things might
have gone differently. Looking back into the
1990s, producer/director Michael Kirk (Inside
the Meltdown, Breaking the Bank), reveals
an intense battle among high-ranking
members of the Clinton administration and
uncovers a concerted effort not to regulate
lucrative derivatives markets, which would
become the ticking time bomb within the American economy. Shown,

Danilo Pérez: Latin Jazz at Home in Boston
Q
A
In celebration of Latin Music USA, the new WGBHproduced TV documentary premiering this month
(see page 10), WGBH Radio hosts will be featuring
Latino artists in every genre—from classical to
Celtic to that uniquely American art form, jazz.
Latin rhythms have been part of jazz since its
birth in the steamy streets of New Orleans. The
infusion of Latin melodies and rhythm became
part of mainstream jazz in the 1940s, with greats
like Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie blending
Latin beats into toe-tapping big band music. From
mambo to bossa nova, salsa to tango, Latin roots
have shaped popular music in the US and continue
to add to the country’s musical conversation.
Panamanian pianist and composer Danilo
Pérez is among the most influential and dynamic
musicians of our time. In just over a decade, his
distinctive blend of pan-American jazz (covering
the music of the Americas, folkloric and world
music) has attracted critical acclaim and loyal
audiences. AudioFile’s Jen Goebel recently talked
with Pérez about his music, his foundation and
the life of a Latin jazz artist.
Q
A
How did you first get interested in
music?
I was born into a musical environment. My
father was a singer, and he gave me a pair of
bongos when I was two years old. He played records
for me all the time, and I just grew up with it.
Q
A
What do you hope people hear in your
music?
Adventure, and the power of the diversity. I
grew up in a wonderful country: Panama is a
meeting point and a transit point because of the
canal, and has an incredible array of influences.
There’s everything from tango to Panamanian
folklore to salsa to Bob Marley to indigenous music
to classical. I like to experience playing with no
boundaries—I think of it as an international
meeting point with no immigration officers.
Q
A
Is there a particular piece of music that
influenced you at a young age?
When I was seven, I heard Papo Lucca, a
Puerto Rican pianist with a salsa group called
La Sonora Ponceña. He was a big influence on me:
there was a piece he played that had an outstanding piano solo. I also remember hearing Louis
Armstrong playing and singing Hello Dolly! That
was pretty amazing, too.
Tell me about your foundation.
About five years ago, I started the Fundación
Danilo Pérez here in Panama to bring music
to kids. We’re working in a complicated area with
lots of gangs. We use music to re-incorpporate
gang members and children at risk into society
and help them become productive citizens. And,
about seven years ago, we started the annual
Panama Jazz Festival with Berklee College of Music
and the New England Conservatory, where they
offer educational programs for kids, youth and
adults from all over Latin America.
Q
A
Q
A
What are you working on now?
I’m very excited to be leading the Berklee
Global Jazz Institute as its artistic director. One
of the goals of the Institute is to explore the social
power of music as a tool for social change. On
another note, I’m also putting together a band
called The Healing Band with international
musicians, and our mission is to perform music
to promote world peace.
Q
A
How can music bring about social
change?
Music teaches important values. In music,
you can’t cheat. If I give you a piece of music,
you have to practice, you can’t write the answer on
your hand. Another value music teaches is teamwork. We are bombarded with ways to be separate,
with ways to be isolated. Music challenges that
environment, and teaches you that the success of
a performance depends on your cooperation with
the other musicians. With jazz, you are free to say
what you want to say, but it has to work in context.
The other very important lesson music teaches is
respect. You have to listen to each other for
success. Music is about listening. Those values—
honesty, harmony, teamwork and respect—are
very powerful tools for social change.
How did you come to Boston?
When I was six years old, my family came to
Boston to visit an uncle of ours, and that’s
when I told my mother that this is where I wanted
to live. After I finished high school in Panama, I
went to college in Pittsburgh to study electronics,
but I had a friend at Berklee who kept telling me
how great it was, and about all that was going on
in Boston. So I applied, without any expectations,
and I won the Quincy Jones Scholarship.
Q
A
What’s the most challenging part of your
work?
Fundraising. That’s very difficult. But I have
learned to take the things I don’t like and look
at them as challenges. I am a superb optimist, and
I love to improvise, so trying to figure out how to
achieve a goal is exciting to me.
Q
A
What’s your favorite thing about being
a musician?
You know, the answer has changed over the years. When I started, I loved the applause and
all the goodies that come with performing. But
now, I value the power and the responsibility that
comes with being able, with a note or a chord, to
light a fire in somebody’s heart. People sometimes
tell me that listening to a piece of music I wrote or
a performance I did helped them in some way, and
I love that. I feel that when you play music, you
become a servant to the divine spirit.

Story Collectors
Arthur Smith Antiques - Savannah, Georgia
Julie and Bob S. are connoisseurs of antiques. But, more
than that, they are collectors of stories.
The antiques they find tell the stories of people all over the country, and shed light
on links to their personal heritage. These stories are what drive Julie and Bob to
search far and wide for these hidden treasures. That’s what brought them to this
lovely antique store in historic Savannah that they discovered on Gozaic.com – a
Web site supported by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. They planned an
entire itinerary filled with activities and places to go to experience more of what
enriches their lives. And that’s a great beginning to their latest story!
