King & Queens Dance

This Dance is about a King asking the Queen for mercy. Congo culture is traditionally matriarchal, with the Queen as the central, powerful figure and the King as her protector and strategist.. Congo dance is heavily improvised with partners responding instinctively rather than following a fixed sequence.

Wave of the Sea (Santa Isabel Is Burning) - Dance

The “Wave of the Sea (Santa Isabel Is Burning)” dance is a Congo-style call-and-response piece that acts like a community cry: the lyrics say Santa Isabel “is burning” from lack of water, and the repeated “ola de la mar” chant feels like a plea for relief.
