JAZZ N CREOLE IN DOMINICA 2018 HIGHLIGHTS


One thing there is to know about Dominica is that any time you visit, there is always something to do in the Nature Isle of the Caribbean.  Whether it be going hiking through the valley of Desolation and unto the second largest boiling lake in the world or going to the river, beach or the the sulphur springs to relax, you will have fun. But one thing Dominica is known for is for the phenomenal events that it holds and this is what brings us here today. Jazz and Creole 2018 is one of the events that brings persons from all over the island, and globe by extension, for an unforgettable experience... yet can you believe that this event almost did not take place?!!!
Surely, I'm certain that most of you guys could have possibly heard of one of the world strongest hurricanes passing through the Nature Isle, leaving it in utter dismay on September the 18th 2017. This is why one of the greatest events to be held in Dominica was cancelled; the World Creole Music Festival and it almost spilled over to this year's Jazz and Creole, 7 months after. When April came around, all hopes of having Jazz n Creole was at an all time zero... but as fate would have it, in the early days of May, hope and share will brought the organizers together and pushed through the obstacles for the event to be held on May the 20th. What may have seemed to be somewhat of a dead letter was brought back to life and in fabulous fashion as well! With the likes of Michele Henderson(Dominica), Kenny Mohammad(Diaspora), Xavier Strings(Trinidad), Extasy Band(Dominica) and much more, put on a great show so a round of applause goes out to all those who made it possible.





This event to us here at BrBpTV, and I'm sure to the many who were gathered at the Fort Shirley National Park here in Portsmouth, felt that this year was the best Jazz and Creole held so far! Despite mother nature's plight against us.... We still won! This event continues to bring persons from all ages and walks of life together and even if to just share in the Ambience of the atmosphere, it provides a safe haven for the love of music and people.
In Addition, there was also a Jazz n Creole 2018 Vlog done as well as an Jazz n Creole Aerial Dominica video leading up to the event so have a look.
