Background:
Artistas Fronterizas is a multicultural multilanguage ensemble founded by students at Hoover High. Performances includes songs with the lyrics sung in Zapoteco, the language of a million people around Oaxaca in southern Mexico. “We are three women, a Ukrainian pianist, a mezzo-soprano from the state of Puebla, and me,” says cofounder Anishka Lee-Skorepa. “We have toured the Bay Area, Pueblo, Texcoco, San Diego, Tijuana. We sing everything from Wagner to Rossini to stories we compose about border life.”
