Photos by Rachel Moscoso Denis Exotic Night at Sheba’s
The distant sound of acoustic guitars invaded the sidewalk; as we stepped into the small vestibule of Sheba’s, we were submerged by the une ...more unequivocal musical trademark of none other than our talented Jacky Ambroise and his group Strings.
It was a night of flamenco tropical, spiced with Haitian flavor, during which even the most bashful found themselves swaying to this stirring rhythm; such, so well mastered by Jacky and his colleagues, in a style second to none.
After setting the crowd ablaze for nearly two hours, it was time to give way to a more subtle, yet equally vibrant sound. Indeed, the moment had arrived to yield the limelight to Mushy Widmaier, who would bring us a delightful hour of jazz. Teamed with his brother, Joel, the pair knew no limits: melody after melody they revived our most dormant musical senses. With the interpretation of a few selections from his latest CD “My Love”, Mushy virtually led some of us to a jazz euphoria, hard to put into words…undoubtedly scrumptious, to say the least!
Determined to end the soirée with a bang, Strings once more took the stage and enchanted us with its music. With a mixture of joy and nostalgia, a former member of the original group, Philippe Augustin, joined them on the podium; this, to many, brought back tremendous reminiscences. Through his base guitar, he spouted profusely harmonic responses to the distinctive notes of Jacky’s own, ultimately making this event “a night to remember”.
Alas, as all good things must come to an end, thus came time to say farewell…to Jacky, Mushy, Joel, and their support group…to our friends and acquaintances…until granted the privilege to meet again for another exciting night!

Connecting Culture, the Arts, Youth & Development YéleFest brought together young Haitian filmmakers, artists, musicians and ...more actors—joined by compatriots from Canada and the United States—to work alongside representatives of non-governmental organizations, volunteer groups, development agencies and donor governments. Together they will explore ways to use culture and the arts to create new models for achieving sustainable development. Wyclef Jean, founder and leader of Yéle Haiti, is convening YéleFest and will also give his first public concert in Haiti in eight years. YéleFest will be held in conjunction with another event taking place at the same time and in the same location: Festival Film Jakmèl is one of the country’s premiere cultural events, now partnering with the Miami and Toronto International Film Festivals. Leading names in international cinema including Dreamworks, HBO, Lions Gate and Sony lend award-winning films that attract thousands of enthusiastic viewers daily.

Luck est né a Port-au-Prince (Haiti). A 4 ans il laisse definitivement son pays natal et grandit au Québec.Il s'intéresse très tôt ...more tôt au chant, d'abord dans le cadre d'offices religieux où il fait partie de diverses chorales.À l'adolescence, il s'intéresse davantage à la musique pop mais surtout au reggae.C'est ainsi qu'il en vient à fonder, avec des musiciens qui partagent ses affinités musicales, le groupe RudeLuck au début des années quatre-vingt-dix.
Déjà fortement impliqué dans sa communauté, le chanteur se sent particulièrement concerné par la situation de ses compatriotes au moment où le pays est ravagé par l'ouragan Jeanne, en septembre 2004. En plus de sa participation active à l'acheminement de secours, il partage les profits de la vente de la chanson "Ti peyi a", le CD simple précédant l'album du même titre, aux deux organismes Centre canadien d'étude et de développement international (CECI) et Médecins du Monde Canada. Pikliz.com a rencontré le Samedi 25 Mars 2006 en Floride Mr Luck Mervil accompagné de musiciens comme Toto Laraque, Emeline Michel, son jeune frère Pierre. Pikliz.com etait representé par Rachelle Moscoso Denis, Manny Ardouin, Francois Adrien. Amusez vous bien en regardant les photos - Comments: 4
