About Me:
Explosive Colombian Woodwind, Brass and Percussion Ensemble based in New York.

La Cumbiamba eNeYé performs concerts and workshops with traditional instruments from the African diaspora in Colombia, as well as with indigenous and European instruments. These elements are blended together in the traditional music that developed through the colonial era and continues to evolve. eNeYé has the versatility to perform from a quintet format for reduced space events, up to a 10-piece band format for large events. La Cumbiamba eNeYé was created in the summer of 2000 by a group of musicians of caliber who share an enthusiasm for investigating, performing and advancing musical expressions emanating from the mix of African, Native Indian and European cultural contributions in the Americas. The band adopted its denomination of "Cumbiamba" from the cultural vocabulary of the north western Caribbean coast in South America. In Colombia, "Cumbiamba" is a familiar word that denotes an outdoors celebration with live cumbia music, or the bands that perform in such events. La Cumbiamba eNeYé evokes this lively atmosphere with every performance, spreading it to multiple cultural venues throughout the city and beyond.
