Spanish music ignites a passion for Milwaukee’s Margarita Sandoval Skare.

Margarita Sandoval Skare is a second-generation Mexican-American who loves to call Milwaukee home. When Margarita retired, she wanted to follow in her father’s footsteps as a musician. One problem: Margarita had never played an instrument. That didn’t stop her from igniting her passion for Latin music. She now shares the folkloric songs in a group called Renacer or “rebirth” in Spanish.
