We Are The Music

By sharing his experience and discoveries through a lifelong journey of music teaching and research, the writer/director seeks to challenge the audience with the question: Do you know who you are in music? The goal is to highlight how social structures in the Western music establishment alienate us from our relationship with music. The film was possible with the support of Cátedra Humboldt and IIArte (Universidad de Costa Rica), and the Latin American Studies Program of the University of Toronto (Canada).

Costa Rican born Guillermo Rosabal-Coto is an ethnographer, sociologist and music educator who studies how the Western establishment alienates the relationships that we affirm, explore, and celebrate when engaging with music in our daily life, from a Latin American, decolonial perspective.
