  3. Music of the Bahamas


Listen to the entrancing songs of Bahamian folk music from the time of slavery to the modern day. Performed by 20 members of the company of “Shakespeare in Paradise” traveling from Nassau, Bahamas.

Music of The Bahamas tells the story of the origins of Bahamian folk music from the days of slavery to the mid-20th century. Originally devised for presentation at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1991, the production is an adaptation of E. Clement Bethel’s master’s thesis in ethnomusicology brought to life on stage. Directed by Marcel T. Sherman, with musical direction by Adrian Archer and choreography by Ricardo Christie.
