Summary: The musical culture of Haitian Vodou, long shrouded in an aura of black magic, is brilliantly unveiled in this recording. Largely recorded in the field, both urban and rural Vodou ceremonial music are captured with state-of-the-art fidelity. The CD is accompanied by photographs, essays, interviews with Vodou practioners, poems, proverbs, folk tales, and more.
