Chouk Bwa Libéte - Manyole Odjadja - LIVE at Afrikafestival Hertme 2015

Performance - 4 July 2015 Chouk Bwa Libète is a traditional Haitian roots group. They make ‘Mizik Rasin’ in their kreyòl language. The source of this music is the essential elements of Haitian Voodoo: rhythms, songs and dances. Today Voodoo is one of the largest religions in the coastal region of West Africa. This faith with his music and rhythms - every God has his own rhythm and his own tune - travelled with the slave transports to the ‘New World’. In Haiti, with its almost completely black population, it rooted firmly and even retained his African name. The members of the group live in Gonaïves, an area of ​​Haiti steeped in Voodoo. The three drummers, who move freely between rhythms, are keepers of cultural memories. The dance is neither aesthetic nor premeditated, it is real. The lead singer’s voice rises effortlessly above the drums. His message expresses the suffering but also the tireless life force of the Haitian people. It is music and dance from far outside the African continent but with roots deep in African soil.
