Grace Maffucci ’22, a double major in music performance and Spanish, was supposed to be the first Providence College student to study in Cuba. She planned to spend this semester at the University of Havana, learning about Cuban and Caribbean culture.When the pandemic overturned those plans, Maffucci regrouped. She designed an independent study with Dr. Monica Simal, associate professor of Spanish, to explore Afro-Cuban culture in music, literature, and art before and after the revolution of 1959. As a jazz singer, she was inspired by her love of Afro-Cuban jazz, which fuses American jazz with African drumbeats and rhythms and a touch of Latin-American salsa.
“Most Spanish majors go to Spain, but my interests lie in Latin America — jazz music, Latin-American culture, and African-American culture,” Maffucci said. “I’m interested in people who have been severely oppressed and, in the aftermath and ongoing oppression, have produced beautiful art forms and rich cultures. It’s inspiring to see human resilience.”
