Every Sunday, from 1 to 2:30 in the afternoon, Encuentro takes you on a journey across Latin America with its folk and traditional music. Encuentro also explores, in a casual but informative setting, other language-related traditions (from literature to proverbial expressions), as well as other forms of artistic expression of the Latin American peoples.

Todos los domingos, de 1 a 2:30 de la tarde, Encuentro recorre la geografía musical de nuestra América Latina. El programa se enfoca en los géneros folclóricos y tradicionales y presenta, además, canciones e interpretes que se han convertido en clásicos del cancionero latinoamericano. Encuentro explora también, de una manera entretenida e informativa a la vez, diversas tradiciones relacionadas a nuestro idioma (desde literatura hasta refranes populares), así como otras formas de expresión artística de los pueblos latinoamericanos.

Just in case:
