Os Kuduristas: A global initiative to introduce Angolan Kuduro dance and music internationally through interactive events and programs...Born of Angola’s burgeoning cultural revival in the Information Age, Kuduro is the cultural expression of a new international and post-war generation. It is a highly energized, innovative movement that incorporates dance, music, fashion, lifestyle, and attitude. Kuduro is filled with palpable optimism, opportunity, and excitement. Culturally savvy, cheeky, colorful, and bold, Kuduro is a unique and provocative genre that bridges the gap between Angolan and global cosmopolitan identity.
“There is definitely a sense of re-birth and renewal happening in Angola right now,” reflects CoréonDú, Os Kuduristas executive producer and respected Angolan musician. “It’s also a time of discovery and of people trying to find their own medium of expressing the moment of history we are living. The time is ripe with opportunity and openness to the world that allows for new creative perspectives and horizons.”
