Patricia BRINTLE - Lisabelle
Son style coloré rappelle au spectateur son Haïti natale. Ses peintures sont imprégnées de symbolismes complexes. Son style est aussi varié que ses sujets mais elle privilégie les couleurs vives car elle explore l'universalité des émotions humaines dans chacune de ses œuvres.
Illustration musicale: Harry BELAFONTE - Jamaica farewell
Beaucoup, y compris Belafonte lui-même, pensent que la chanson était populaire aux Antilles bien avant que Burgie Irving, l'auteur ne l'ecrive. On pense que l'auteur a compilé et modifié la chanson à partir de nombreux morceaux folkloriques pour en faire une nouvelle chanson.
Down the way Where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
I took a trip on a sailing ship And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down My head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Sounds of laughter everywhere And the dancing girls swing to and fro
I must declare my heart is there Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down My head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Down at the market you can hear Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
Ackee, rice, saltfish are nice And the rum is fine any time of year
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down My head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Down the way Where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
I took a trip on a sailing ship And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down My head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Sad to say I'm on my way Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down My head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
