✨Thank you, Copenhagen! ✨ ✨ Gracias Copenhague! ✨ - Spanish below We share with you our version of @julieta_rada baile del candombe 🪘🔥🎉 We at Candombe DK are still buzzing from the energy of our sold-out concert at the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, presenting our project “The Woman Who Sings the Drum.” What a joy to feel the crowd singing, dancing, and fully embracing the rhythm of the drum. 🪘🎶💃🏽 Candombe was alive in every heartbeat that night! We had the immense honor of sharing the stage with @hernandezfloreslaura whose powerful voice and presence gave soul and depth to every moment. And by her side, the amazing Uruguayan pianist @manucontrera , whose music took us all on a journey. 🎤🎹🔥 This project is more than a concert... it’s a celebration of our Afro-Latin American roots, a cultural bridge between continents, and another step in our mission to bring candombe to life here in Copenhagen. We’re deeply grateful to everyone who made this night possible and to the incredible audience who danced, clapped, and sang with us. Let’s keep the drum beating! ❤️🌍 _____________________ Desde Candombe DK todavía estamos vibrando con la energía de nuestro concierto con entradas agotadas en el Copenhagen Jazz Festival, donde presentamos nuestro proyecto “La Mujer que Le Canta al Tambor”. ¡Qué alegría sentir al público cantar, bailar y entregarse por completo al ritmo del tambor! 🪘🎶💃🏽 El candombe estuvo más vivo que nunca, latiendo en cada corazón esa noche. Tuvimos el enorme honor de compartir escenario con @hernandezfloreslaura , cuya voz y presencia poderosa le dieron alma y profundidad a cada momento. Y junto a ella, el tremendo pianista uruguayo @manucontrera , cuya música nos hizo viajar. 🎤🎹🔥 Este proyecto es mucho más que un concierto... es una celebración de nuestras raíces afro-latinoamericanas, un puente cultural entre continentes y un paso más en nuestra misión de darle vida al candombe acá en Copenhague. Gracias de corazón a todas las personas que hicieron posible esta noche, y al público increíble que bailó, aplaudió y cantó con nosotres. ¡Que el tambor siga sonando! ❤️🌍
