Back in the day when Congo Square is the epicenter of artistic expression. When music's exclusive role is to interrogate myriad moans, chants, cries, and  people tropes in an integrative moment of protest, spirituality, and healing. Voices and souls from the Underground, the streets, the soil. A dynamic litany of expressions, hollars, that later emerged in songs of protest and artistic brilliance. From the Creole, to the Moors,  and Catholic Church:  Came a conflation of influence that ushered from the heart, hands and tongue; pitch and embouchure,  organically and forever associated with the passion and yearning of a people - for freedom.
