On Sunday, April 17 at Brooklyn Botanic Garden, upright bass player, Jonathan Michel, celebrated Haitian women composers with special guest singer and guitarist, Talie Cerin. The two performed numerous original compositions from Talie’s latest project “Solèy Midi,” as well as an original composition by Jonathan which he created during his time as a Lakou NOU resident in 2019. The duo closed their set with a song composed and performed by Emeline Michel and many began singing along to the familiar tune. The audience enjoyed the music on the lawn while the sun peaked through the clouds, setting the tone for a beautiful Sunday filled with music and Haitian culture.
