EL CIMARRÓN

The Metropolitan Museum of Art 1000 5th Ave, New York, NY, United States

Hans Werner Henze's El Cimarrón (The Runaway Slave) is a tour-de-force sonic onslaught based on the oral autobiography of Esteban Montejo, an enslaved Afro-Cuban who escaped bondage on a sugar plantation, survived in the jungle, fought for Cuban independence from Spain, and lived to tell about it all before dying at the age of 113.
