Cuban-Americans, who have grown up in different countries and experienced entirely different lifestyles? Does Mambo encourage a greater understanding not only of Cuban culture, but also of the global heritage that we all share?

While Pascal Rollet and I expected to fulfill course goals of the new Carthage Symposium MUSI/MLA 200T: Exploring Poetry and Song: Creations in Time – French and Spanish: to increase language skills, increase music literacy, acquire basic performance skills in voice, piano and/or guitar, as well as competency in the use of the software program Garage Band, this little band of fledgling composers has already surpassed expectations. These new recordings demand a larger audience. Process: Each student completes at least four recording projects of increasing complexity and originality. 1. Found poem with found music. 2. New poem with found music 3. Found poem with new music. 4. New poem with new music. This experience immerses students in a creative world beyond comfort in multiple media: creative writing in foreign languages, music performance, audio engineering, and weighing aesthetic value. Composed by students with majors from Chemistry, Physics, Political Science, Accounting, and Sport and Fitness to Social Work, Theatre, French and Accounting, the creativity and aesthetic nuance is affecting. Sensitive use of language, flexible vocalization, and fresh musical creativity of inspired synchronicity and artistic accomplishment cause spontaneous celebration in class. We request to share these compositions with others, as well as inspire the creator in every adventurer. 41
