About Caballito Negro
Bi-coastal duo Caballito Negro is known for its creative and compelling performances, generating an ecstatic blend of modern and traditional aesthetics. Multi-flutist Tessa Brinckman and multi-percussionist Terry Longshore draw their name ("dark little horse") from Federico García Lorca's poem, 'Canción de Jinete.' They collaborate with visionary artists, using an arsenal of instruments to push the artistic experience to new heights, and always in the spirit of duende. Heralded for their "wildly personal, intercultural, modern music…vivid, expressive music that could be performed anywhere" (Oregon Arts Watch), the duo melds narratives, images, and themes in imaginative curations. Caballito Negro envisions true cultural exchange through innovative projects with local, regional, and international artists.
