Ildalia and Miguel Lanzó Directors of the Ballet Folkloric de Bomba y Plena Lanzó: We are originally from Loiza, Puerto
Rico, we moved to Boston, Mass where we established a bomba y plena dance group and also worked within the community. In 1988
we moved to Orlando, Florida, were we came to establish Ballet Folkloric de Bomba y Plena Lanzó in May of 1992. Our main goal
was to teach others; primarily the younger generation about their Puerto Rican cultural. The Bomba is one of the principal
music of Puerto Rico, just like the sister islands of Cuba with their Caribe-Rumba, Haiti with their Tumba. Bomba is characterized
with the use of three drums and several dancers. Two of the three drums keep a steady rhythm while the middle drum changes
the rhythm according to the dancer in front of the middle drum (Buleador). This objection can also be described as a battle
between the dancer and the drummer. Our CD, which was released in 2003, is a selection of Traditional and Original, Bomba
Y Plena songs created by Ballet Lanzó. Ballet Lanzó is currently made up of 14 members
