World Creole Music Festival? What is that you may ask? For those who don't know let us get down into the nitty gritty of things. First of all the World Creole Music Festival falls pretty much in the best of the year. WHy is that? Simply because it's during the Creole Season of course and in my opinion(I'm sure many of you share the same sentiments), it is a time where Creole forms under the theme of unity. Unity being the ideal aspect of the Creole Season which by the way leads up to the Independence Season, another fantastic time of the year. You see? I told you it is the best time of the year. :) The mere fact that you are thinking about creole, you think of mixture and it is a time where everyone settles out their difference and comes together in unity to enjoy life and the freedom that comes with it. If you don't believe me ask anyone in Dominica. Yes, Dominica is where it is at during the month of October and of course persons from all over the globe flock towards Dominica during that time. Maybe now you get a picture of how important this event and time means to us. It's a celebration of true freedom, mixture, colors, food and of course music which brings us here today.
The World Creole Music Festival also known as WCMF, indeed has to be the highest form of entertainment in Dominica for the festival Season and in part the rest of the Caribbean. This is an event that runs for 3 days during the last weekend of October after the whole week event of the well known Creole in the Park. The creole of music, or should I say, the mixture in music brings to the Dominican shores various artists of Caribbean decent from the international, regional and local walks. This year celebrates the 17th WCMF 2013 and the theme said was the promotion of our Dominican local acts.. of course accompanied by the well known heads in music both from the international and regional spectrum. The Episode that you are about to see it nothing short but of wonder and excitement and persons coming together of different race, background, place, and language. You might think, "...but wait, how it is possible to have some many persons coming together and they don't share the same culture?" Well my friends, brothers and sisters, music is a universal language and spoken by the artists present it is clear to see that the gap amongst these variations, was no match and an easy bridge to gap. After all, Creole does mean mixture and in this mixture here at the first night of the World Creole Music Festival 2013, we find complete unity. But...:) Don't take my word for it. See for yourself.
