ROËL CALISTER ENSEMBLE
THE WORK OF SONGS
A musical performance in which music carries stories and brings enlightenment.
Let yourself be carried away by Roël Calister in a musical performance about resilience, solace, and unity during times of oppression and resistance. Blending fiery Afro-Curaçaoan drums, melancholic strings, and modern influences, Roël weaves rhythm and melody into an immersive experience.
The Work of Songs reveals how music offered strength, healed wounds, and connected people. Roël is joined by the Roël Calister Ensemble, a versatile group that fuses authentic Tambú traditions with contemporary genres, creating a powerful tribute to the resilience and cultural pride of a people.
