The internationally celebrated Quijerema is a performing arts quartet that celebrates the cultures of the Americas through original music, poetry and multi-media art installations. Quijeremá “renders a whole constellation of South American rhythms into a jazz idiom … cueca from Chile, tango from Argentina, waltz at its most Latin, landó from Peru, joropo from Venezuela, and huaino from the Andes.” Quijerema has been involved with the Red Poppy Art House for many years and scored the soundtrack for the documentary film ¡Pablo Neruda!¡Presente!.
