Production details
Prepare to be blown away: hear the passionate melodies, wild harmonies and richly textured arrangements of these inspiring vocalists and you will know this is something new from Cuba, the most original vocal sound to come out of of the country in a long while. The Creole Choir’s Cuban name Desandann means literally ‘descendents’ and with the songs on their forthcoming album 'Tande-La' (which translates to 'listen') they tell the stories of their Haitian ancestors who were brought to Cuba to work in near slave conditions in the sugar and coffee plantations.
