A Young Iyalorisa Tells Us The Role Of Dance And Song In Yoruba Spirituality
Yoruba Religion – May 5, 20160

My name is Egbelade Omitonade Ifawemimo. I practice African Traditional Religion, Yemoja worshipper. I am Yemoja priestess which also versed in Ifa, Researcher, Theologian. I am a graduate of Obafemi Awolowo University where I studied Economics Education, Ile Ife, Osun State. I am from Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria.

In Yoruba culture, songs and dance have so much importance to religious worship and spirituality. All Orisas holds particular importance in dance and songs. And Worship in African Traditional Religion take the form of rites and ceremonies and include prostrating, praying, invoking, and making offerings. Sounding the bell or gong, singing, drumming, and dancing as occasion demands. Song and dance come up under liturgy. Liturgy therefore, is an important element of worship in African Traditional Religion.

In Orisa Worship, the presence of dance as a way of reenacting spirituality and songs as a way of reverence to the power of Olodumare and Orisas are essential to the worship of Orisas. Each Orisa is identified with drum ensemble, songs and dance styles. Also, every Orisa has unique dance movement that reflects its attributes as we have different drums for each Orisa. That is, the musical instruments used for each Orisa is different. The musical instrument for Sango and Yemoja is bata, Ifa is for Agogo and other Orisas is Dundun.

Symphony Space is pleased to announce the first installment of The Source Project, a weeklong celebration tracing the influence of AFRICA on New World cultures. This inaugural year focuses on Afro-Cuban culture, with an enticing mix of music, documentaries, cocktails, and a talk on the island’s undersea marvels.

The festivities begin on Sunday, May 1 (11 am – 2 pm) with “A Rumba in the Alley,” a free block party with the Román Díaz Rumba Ensemble, and culminate in a show by the Pedrito Martinez Group with a rare appearance by legendary Cuban salsa vocalist Issac Delgado on Sunday, May 8 (7 pm).

Says Symphony Space’s Artistic Director, Andrew Byrne, “For our first installment of The Source Project, I felt it was important to focus on a Caribbean nation very much in the news these days — Cuba. For one week, the sights and sounds of Afro-Cuban culture will take over Symphony Space with a street party, film series, music of many types, dancing, and even a Science talk! A special thank you to our curator for the Project, Alexa Burneikis.”

Tickets are available at http://www.symphonyspace.org. As mentioned, the opening “Rumba in the Alley” on May 1 is free and open to the public.

Bueno, los Stones tocaron en Cuba. Ya no es una probabilidad, sino un hecho.

Este viernes 25 estuve desde las once y media de la mañana en los terrenos de la Ciudad Deportiva, pero valió la pena: al entrar pude ganar un lugar increíble, a menos de diez metros del escenario. El problema con ese tipo de emplazamientos es que no puedes moverte de ahí, y créanme que es algo más que un imperativo moral: no puedes, no hay paso, debes estar de pie o sentado (en el área que ocupas de pie) durante un montón de horas. Para estirar una pierna o ponerte de lado la cosa funciona como un cubo de Rubik, alguien más tiene que recolocarse, y así sucesivamente. Sin embargo, cuando empieza el concierto te felicitas por haber resistido.

“Hemos sabido que hubo una época en que no se podía escuchar nuestra música en Cuba. Bueno, pues aquí estamos. Los tiempos están cambiando”, dijo Mick antes de presentar una canción. Y en ese sentido, ¡vaya si han cambiado!: la banda que no muchas décadas atrás nos pintaban como la quintaesencia de la decadencia y degradación de la juventud bajo el capitalismo, cierra en Cuba su gira latinoamericana (la Olé Tour, nombre a mi juicio bastante inapropiado) y sus integrantes son aclamados como dioses. Y dioses no serán, pero sí tienen mucho de iconos y leyendas vivas, no es un grupito recién formado con un par de temas de éxito, sino uno de los nombres decisivos en la historia de la cultura contemporánea.
