Celebrating roots, resistance, and the irresistible rhythms of life, the Creole Choir of Cuba captivates audiences with their passionate melodies, richly textured harmonies and vibrant dancing. Shifting Caribbean tempos and Afro-Cuban beats propel the Choir’s undiscovered musical treasures from Haiti, Dominica and Cuba. From laments and protests to celebrations of enduring love and freedom—each note evokes a powerful story handed down in song through the generations. The Grammy-nominated ensemble is quickly earning its place alongside Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Soweto Gospel Choir and Sweet Honey in the Rock as one of the great choirs of the world.
