The Creole Choir of Cuba

The Creole Choir of Cuba

Presented by CSB/SJU Fine Arts Series at CSB Benedicta Arts Center - Escher Auditorium

Experience passionate melodies, wild harmonies and richly textured arrangements that sound nothing like what you’ve heard out of Cuba before.
Members of the Creole Choir of Cuba are descendants of Haitian and Dominican migrants who came to Cuba in waves, first escaping slavery and then as laborers in Cuba’s sugar plantations. The choir performs the vibrant dances, spectacular harmonies and colorful rhythms of the Caribbean in music that is little known outside of Cuba. They sing in Creole, Cuba’s second language, a pragmatic fusion of African, French and other languages.
