Treaty of Tordesillas WMBR Latin Music

12/28/2025

Today we'll be re-airing our most recent show, in which we finally (after more than 7 years together!) delve into the Christmas musical traditions of at least some corners of Latin America. If you missed it, now's your chance-- plus of course it will be available in the WMBR-chives for the next 2 weeks as well.

Maybe it's because of all the horrors of this year, or maybe it was that visit from the Ghost of Christmas Future we had, but for some reason here at Treaty of Tordesillas WMBR Latin Music we have decided to get into the spirit of the season and play Latin Christmas tunes today. Of course, these are songs about food and dancing and family. Bring your appetite to our dance party today (2-4 pm live on WMBR-Cambridge, or when you're able over the next 2 weeks at wmbr.org)!

We had so much fun doing songs that turned 50 this year on our last show that we’re planning a part two for this week! Expect even more obscure Brazilian sounds, steaming hot salsa, and nueva canciòn, along with tunes found in less-travelled corners of the Latin music archives.

Come with Treaty of Tordesillas WMBR Latin Music this afternoon as we go back in time to 1975– 50 years ago was the heyday of so much of the music we adore on this show, so you know it will be smoking!

As always, 2-4p Boston-time to hear it live.

WMBR is the awesome little radio station broadcasting from deep within the basements of MIT in Cambridge, Mass.

We're getting into the Valentine's groove today, with songs about love and love lost. Come for the schmaltzy romantic salsa, and stay for the heart-wrenching agonies of the great mariachi charros. Heart/break, amor/perdido, both/and
