1975 - 1979

Had the opportunity to attend
EAST LOS ANGELES COLLEGE
while still in high school
and after high school


The Chicano Studies program
started there in 1965

took classes in
philosophy,
psychology
 HISTORY OF THE AMERICAS

(was not interested in the mechanics
of music which I did not
start studying until 1977)

​
​Had never heard of or read
THE TRUE HISTORY OF THE CONQUEST OF NEW SPAIN
by
BERNAL DIAZ DEL CASTILLO
​

a very different point of view from what
we were being taught in high school

which of course led to the writings of
Miguel Leon Portilla and Michael Coe etc., 
the MEXICANIST and MAYANIST of our time
and a fascination for all things
Mexican and MesoAmerican


all the while still playing music
either on
drumset,
then piano,
then marimba,
then north India tabla,
then kanjira and ghatam
all at the same time 
all the time


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

1975 - 1976
EXPERIENCED
a MEXICA - AZTECA
dance presentation
with  

MAESTRO
Florencio Yescas

and his group
performing

FUEGO
@
RIO HONDO COLLEGE
(1976?)


one dancer (literally) bent
over backwards while flames
ascended under his back


while Florencio
danced on his abdomen


Never experienced anything like that
​before or since
by any other danza ensemble

​
1979 - 1981
auditioned and accepted at
CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF THE ARTS
on a full scholarship to study 
North Indian tabla

​1981
In 1981 musician Luis Perez IXONEZTLI
from Mexico City was invited to give
a series of lectures and concerts
at UCLA in Los Angeles.


IXONEZTLI plays
Indigenous instruments of Mesoamerica alongside

indigenous instruments far from the Mesoamerican region
e.g., 
instruments of the
Raramuri,
Seri,
Tepehuano 
and
Yaqui


The stage was full of instruments which have never
before been side by side in traditional settings, 

e.g., 
Mayan wood and clay drums,
Raramuri double sided drums, 
Yaqui water drums 
and clay breath instruments from
every region of Mexico. 

Luis presented traditional and original music
in a very ritualistic way,

in regalia which incorporated several languages
and several regions of Mexico.

He sang songs in various indigenous languages
that he learned from his travels throughout Mexico.

His presentations feature the instruments,
the music, the regalia and the ritual

of various indigenous peoples of Mexico and Mesoamerica
that he learned elbow to elbow from his extensive travels.

He is one of 3 groups of musicians who continue
to record continuously since 1980 with over 100 recordings
of their presentations of the instruments 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

​1981 thru the 2002
​

left CAL ARTS and started working full time as a musician
with extensive tours throughout the United States and Canada

playing creative non commercial music
either with
drumset, 
marimba, 
or
percussion of India
in every musical setting imaginable

PREVIOUS PERFORMANCES
with
christophergarciamusic.weebly.com/previous-performances.html


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2002
was recommended for a duo performance
in Pasadena, CA with

a musician I had never met.

Invited to play percussion from India
and the other musician 
played breath 
and string instruments from various parts
of the world.

1 year later he invited me to perform
at a concert with his ensemble
ANCIENT GROOVES


That ensemble included
Malik Sow of Senegal
and
Martin Espino of Los Angeles,
two musicians that I had also never met

On the drive to the concerts from
East Los Angeles with Martin,

we spoke about many things.

It  turns out that we had a lot of musical friends in common,
but our names had never been mentioned to each other.

We had been traveling in 2 very different worlds
and our circles had never intersected.  
​

After that performance and long discussions about music,
Martin and I collaborated 
in two very different  musical
endeavors between 2003 and 2012 whenever I was in

Los Angeles, as I was touring 90 days a year in 28 countries
on 5 continents at that time which continues to this day


The ensembles we collaborated on were either

MEXIKA 
performing original compositions for indigenous
instruments of Mexico from various regions of Mexico

But MEXIKA rarely did anything traditional and we created
our own rhythmic and ambient sonic landscapes utilizing
the indigenous breath and percussion instruments.
​

and/or

QUE TAL 
10 string guitar and percussion of India and Mexico

Each of us knew how to read and write Western notation
and had practical performance experience playing these
and other Western instruments and improvising in different contextS


(Martin studied classical guitar at Immaculate Heart College
and I attended 

CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF THE ARTS
on a full scholarship studying western music

and percussion of India)
MEXIKA performed at several concerts and educational lecture
demonstrations mostly in California 
(but never outside of the United States)
and usually at libraries and some schools


Information gleaned through study,
and personal contact with various musicos,

danzantes, and artisans, through playing, collaborating,
and lots of reading, research,

studying and verifying that information and more playing.


but I also had incredible opportunities to learn and play with

traditional and classical musicians from
Africa,
China,
India,
Japan,
Lebanon,
Mexico
as well as classical,
jazz and rock musicians 

and we started to incorporate
other musical aspects and ingredients 

of music along with the indigenous ones that we knew. 



2002

Any danza rhythms or drumming I learned was from the following

ORCHESTRAL RESIDENCIES

and 

LECTURES


invited to work with the percussion sections
​of the

BAKERSFIELD SYMPHONY
who performed 
CARLOS CHAVEZ
SINFONIA INDIA
and
SILVESTRE REVUELTAS
SENSEMAYA

these pieces composed in 1936 for symphony
orchestra and Indigenous 
instruments continues
to be played worldwide but usually with Western
substitute instrumentsinstead of the Indigenous instruments
it was ​originally composed for.


We worked elbow to elbow for a few hours in order
to familiarize them with non Western techniques and

I was also invited to give a 10 minute lecture about
the instruments and the composition before we
performed the piece. 


Since then I have worked with the following
percussion sections 

THE ALL STAR ORCHESTRA
THE BAKERSFIELD SYMPHONY
THE DUPAGE SYMPHONY 
THE IPALPITI ORCHESTRA
LOS ANGELES PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA
THE UCLA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

and several others providing tutelage for the percussion sections
as the instruments do not respond the way Western instruments do
e.g.,
the water drums move when you strike them
the Yaqui hand held drum requires the instrumentalist
to hold the drum with one hand, and strike it with
a stick in the other hand all the while finding
the balance point so that the drum does not lose

its resonance
i.e.,
different techniques which most
orchestral drummers have little to 

no experience with

Met Dr. Stevenson many times,
usually after a lecture at Schoenberg Hall. 
Would meet him at the faculty lounge. 
He would ask
 "What hall did you lecture in?"
told him Schoenberg Hall, 
he would say 
"they should make it mandatory
for the entire school to go,
this work is important" 

His work(s) continue to be used and researched.
THANKFUL for all his hard work which continues
to be one of the cornerstones of our work

​2025
RECEIVED A COMMISSION FROM 
LOS ANGELES COUNTRY DEPT
OF ARTS AND CULTURE

LA COUNTY is pleased to mark a significant cultural milestone
with the installation of its first permanent sound artworks
at Atlantic Avenue Park and Athens Park.

These artworks will present a unique auditory
experience located in an unconventional setting:
​inviting a reevaluation of how and where
art can intersect with public life.

The choice of location plays a critical role
in democratizing access to art,
making it a part of everyday experience
rather than something encountered
only in traditional venues.

This approach not only broadens the audience’s
interaction with art but alsointegrates it seamlessly into
daily routines,
prompting reflections onhistory and culture
in moments typically devoid of such considerations.
