The three main types of traditional dance in St. Lucia are Jwe, Kele and the Kwadril. The Kwadril is the dance depicted by the collaged images on the side of the piano and the lyrics on the front of the piano are from an old folk song titled Nou ka Pasé written in kwéyòl, which translates into “ we are passing by”. Also on the front of the piano are raised, textured lettering that says “ afro-lucian cultural expressions nurtured and preserved”. This text is meant to represent the awareness and resurgence of respect that younger St. Lucians have in regards to these traditions so often lost to modern perspectives. ENJOY!
