Testimonials
"We were searching for a musical group to perform during Hispanic Heritage Month within our budget. Musiquita fit the bill perfectly." - Parent and PTO DEI Committee Co-chair, Ithan Elementary School
"Musiquita is a vibrant and sparkly bilingual experience. Young children and caregivers are made to feel welcome, as they can't help but move to the beat and learn some new words. Jesse and Blanca are the whole package, providing superior musicianship, all while bringing the fun and panache. High quality entertainment for all!" - Head of Children’s Services, Fairlawn Public Library
"Blanca and Jesse of Musiquita were the perfect fit for our needs. They maintained the attention of our entire audience both during the younger grades assembly (k-2) as well as our older grades assembly (3-5). They made changes to cater to both age groups seamlessly. They were engaging and easy to follow. Injecting both Spanish language and tidbits about musical instruments. They even got the teachers up and dancing. What a treat and delight! We would recommend them over and over again." - Parent and PTO DEI Committee Co-chair, Ithan Elementary School
