Creole Choir of Cuba to Showcase at globalFEST 2011
By WMC_News_Dept. Sunday December 19, 2010

Grupo Vocal Desandann is now marketed as the Creole Choir of Cuba. The ensemble will be performing at globalFEST 2011 at New York City’s Webster Hall (125 E. 11th St.) on January 9.

Creole Choir of Cuba is an extraordinary Cuban vocal group of Haitian descent. The ensemble is composed mainly of second and third generation Haitians who were born and raised in Cuba, particularly in the Camaguey area.

Singing of their ancestors’ longing for home and stirring audiences with percussion and movement, these skilled musicians from Eastern Cuba evoke the Caribbean’s complex and rich musical heritage with precision and passion. These qualities shine on their debut international release on the Real World label.
