BronxNet presents Bronx Live: The 10th Biennial BomPlenazo Opening Night concert featured two Puerto Rican ensembles – La Máquina Insular and the all-female group Ausuba. An offshoot of the acclaimed Viento de Agua, La Maquina Insular, under the direction of Hector ‘Tito’ Matos, played a repertoire of classic and new plenas, and the exciting all-female bomba group Ausuba, whose members hail from Loíza, Mayaqüez and Santurce, made its BomPlenazo debut.
