Music from Guatemala 2

Garifuna Music

The Garifunas live along the eastern coast of Central America. This fantastic music vibrates with old African and Caribbean cultural roots and historic past.

Here you can meet for the first time on CD, several varieties of the infectious music of the Garifuna minority of Guatemala – from the traditional to the modern. “…releases for those looking for something a bit deeper than the latest world beat…”. “An excellent window into a musical world that still remains poorly documented”. (Songlines 2000)
