Jorgensen Center for the Performing Arts presents

Documentary and Q&A with Nano Stern

“En Septiembre Canta el Gallo” (“We'll be Singing by September”): 50 Years of Chilean Nueva Canción Music

Jorgensen Center invites you to a complimentary screening of Nano Stern’s documentary “We'll be Singing by September” (En Septiembre Canta el Gallo) in conjunction with his performance on Thu, Mar 13 (SOLD OUT).

This special film is a feature documentary exploring the history, development, and transcendence of Chilean music during the socialist government of Salvador Allende. Throughout a series of interviews with the most prominent figures of the Nueva Canción Chilena, stop-motion animation and never-before-seen archival material, the film travels back to a time when music, creativity, social movements, and political force aligned to give birth to an artistic revolution whose songs still resonate throughout the world. September of 2023 marked the 50th anniversary of the overthrow of Salvador Allende’s democratically elected government by the military with the backing of the U.S. government.

Chilean singer, songwriter, and documentary producer, Nano Stern, will be introducing the film and conducting a Q&A session.
