3:38 p.m., Sept. 17, 2004--Aventura, one of the best-known bachata groups, will take the stage at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 24, in Mitchell Hall.

The concert is presented by HOLA, UD’s Hispanic Organization for Latino Americans. Bachata is popular guitar music from the Dominican Republic.

Aventura has revolutionized Latin music by fusing R&B, hip-hop and bachata. The popular band performs in English, Spanish and “Spanglish.”

The group’s album "We Broke the Rules," features a chart-topping single, "Obsession," which sold more than 60,000 copies in the first week and has exceeded 100,000 copies to date.
