Cape Verde has a rich Creole...

by GDS1230

Cape Verde has a rich Creole culture..the very first European Creole culture in fact. There is a variety of foods and music to be found in these islands. Listen to the sorrowful sounds of Cesária Évora's mornas, or dance to the beat of Fantcha's rythmic african sounds.
